Patience With My Unsolved Questions

Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart
and try to love the questions themselves.

--Rainer Maria Rilke

 

 

I am on a journey and, in some ways, this journey is a quest for answers.

The questions give energy and direction to my seeking.

I cannot expect to get quick or easy answers.

And some questions will always remain just that: questions.

But I can learn to be patient with ourselves, tolerant of our incompleteness, and always curious about how it will all turn out.

 

Today I will practice patience with myself and

embrace my unsolved questions

as crucial elements in my quest.
