Homage to Sarah Jane

My friend SJ posted a quote on her blog a few months ago and I've been thinking about it ever since. Here it is, reposted:

"Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart.
Try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books written in a foreign language. Do not now look for the answers.
They cannot now be given to you because you could not live them. It is a question of experiencing everything.

At present you need to live the question.

Perhaps you will gradually,
without even noticing it,
find yourself experiencing the answer,
some distant day."

-Rilke
