Sometimes what you really need is advice from our greatest German-language poet.
Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now 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 then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.
Via Letters To A Young Poet
Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror.
Just keep going. No feeling is final.
Via Book of Hours
