“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves. 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.” ~ Rainer Maria Rilke
I was out with a friend for coffee tonight and we were engaged in an intense conversation as always. She said imagine us 14 years from now. What are the questions we will be asking then? I laughed, trying to imagine myself at almost 65 and all that will have transpired by then. What would the questions be, and how might I answer them differently than now? Love them anyway. The questions are what keeps me active and alert. Live the questions. It is a great suggestion.
Peace,
Suzanne
