so many words out there. some spoken, swirling through the air, floating on the in-between. some unspoken, resting in my heart, repeating in my head. yet i've come to this page so many times in the last month and my fingers can't find the words. seems the backspace key is the one i strike the most leaving only a blank page. tonight isn't much better. so instead of finding my own words, i'm typing these words as though they are my own. hard to believe that tonight in 2010 my heart finds solace in these sentiments from someone's heart in 1903.
"have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. don't search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. and the point is, to live everything. live the questions now. perhaps then, someday, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer." -ranier maria rilke
