I am a collector of words

Words feed me, free me, comfort, uplift and heal me. I've been saving my favorites in books, handwritten over the years and thought that perhaps in sharing them, not only am I preserving them for myself, but perhaps others may also find healing in them as I have.

Living the Questions

"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 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
