Patience

“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”
Rainer Maria Rilke

When you “live the questions,” you start on a path to true learning. Questions are so much more useful than mere answer —especially if those answers are based on convention, dogma, or supposed authority. No one ever learned much from answers. Only time spent wrestling with the most demanding questions can produce real insight and wisdom.
