A dear friend once sent me this. I find myself reflecting upon it now:
“Have patience with everything unresolved in your heart…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. The point is
to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in
the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way
into the answer.”
-Rainer Maria Rilke

Sometimes there are no questions but that we convince ourselves they exist thereby seeking answers that never were. This you may find in the future providing not an answer but a realization.
