Mark Tansey - Triumph Over Mastery IIBe patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are 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 find them gradually, without noticing it, and live along some distant day into the answer.
~Rainer Maria Rilke

Lovely wise words thanks for sharing.
Have a good week.
Yvonne,
Live the questions now. (Love that.)
When I looked at that painting and the man in it, I immediately thought to myself... "Where can I get one of those? And does he also have a twin brother?!" :-P lol.
Such a beautiful quote you shared too Kelly! Thank you. Happy Sunday.
The painting reminds me of something out of "Fountainhead." Don't know why...
Loved this part of the quote: "...and live along some distant day into the answer." My answers always seem to come along on a distant day, long after I even asked the question.
I like the statement - live the questions now. That really speaks to me. Thanks for sharing. Happy Sunday!
"...live everything..." Perfect words.
Thanks Kelly. :)
I really love this particular quote and the painting you chose to go with it. It really speaks to me.
That's a lovely quote! :)
patience and living in the question. Great quote
Beautiful pic and quote!
Happy Sunday!
Always a pleasure to read your notes Kelly "...Perhaps you will find them gradually, without noticing it" - some scholars encourage us to "hold on to the question" till the answer appears ! Many thanks
Live everything. That says it all. Love the pic, too. UH-HUH. :)
Thanks for brightening my life, Kelly. I'm so glad to call you friend. *hugs* :)
Beautiful words you've shared! I always love having you join in on Sunday Citar!
