that things can happen in a different order
than the one you have in mind.”

it’s how we behave while we’re waiting.”

“If we could look into each other’s hearts
and understand the unique challenges each of us face,
I think we would treat each other
much more gently, with more love,
patience, tolerance, and care.”

“Flowers only bloom when they are ready.
People are the same way.
You cannot rush or force them open
just because you think it’s time.
Be patient.”

“Have patience with everything that
remains unsolved in your heart.
Try to love the questions themselves,
like locked rooms and like books
written in a foreign language.
Do not now look for the answers.
They cannot now be given to you
because you could not live them.
It is a question of experiencing everything.
At present you need to live the question.
Perhaps you will gradually,
without even noticing it,
find yourself experiencing the answer,
some distant day.”
~ Rainer Maria Rilke more
“Your mind will answer most questions
if you learn to relax and wait for the answer.”
~ William S. Burroughs
