The quote “Lovely days don’t come to you, you should walk to them.” is widely attributed to the 13th-century Persian poet and mystic Rumi. This saying emphasizes the importance of actively seeking out positive experiences and happiness, rather than waiting passively for them to occur.
Note that while this quote is commonly associated with Rumi, its exact origin is not well-documented in his known works. Many modern attributions to Rumi are paraphrased or adapted interpretations of his teachings. Therefore, while the sentiment aligns with Rumi’s philosophy, the precise wording may not be directly from his original writings.
