patience
be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart
and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms
and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue
do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you
because you would not be able to live them
and the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now
perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it,
live along some distant day into the answer
~ rainer maria rilke
