Live the questions

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

Clearly, I need to read more Rilke.
