"Letters to a Young Poet"

... 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 ecperiencing the answer, some distant day.

-Rainer Maria Rilke

and, girl, keep your head up!
