Had an amazing lesson with Leila, as always, reading some short Sufi/mystical texts. I feel so lucky to have a teacher with such deep knowledge of classical Persian! Although I still have so much to learn, I have made such progress in the last few months reading the classical literature, and I couldn't have done it without Leila's help.
