i beg you... to have patience toward all that is unresolved 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 you now, because you would not be able to live them. and the point is, to live everything. live the questions now. perhaps you will find them gradually, without noticing it. live along some distant day into the answer.
