rainer maria rilke.


Have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the question themselves, as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language.

Don't search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them.

And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now.

Perhaps then, some day far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.
- rainer maria wilke, letters to a young poet
