something beautiful and true

thanks to a dear new friend for sending me this wonderful thing today:


I would like to beg you dear Sir, as well as I can, to have patience with everything unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions 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, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way to the answer.

-Reiner Maria Rilke
