Be patient

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 now. Perhaps you will then
gradually, without noticing it, live along some
distant day into the answers.

Rainer Maria Rilke, Letter to a Young Poet

But sometimes...when ur no longer 19 like this young poet...seek the answers...for one may find when that distant day comes...it may be too late to live into the answers
