Lebanese-American poet Khalil Gibran struggled in a material world, but learned to find peace in two different realms.  

“I once told you that my life is divided into two lives and that I spend the one in working and being with people, the other in the mist. But that was yesterday, for now my life has been unified and I work in the mist, meet people in the mist, even sleep, dream and wake up in the mist.”
