Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love.
Be patient toward all that is Unsolved in your heart And try to love the questions Themselves. Do not now seek the answers that cannot be given you Because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will gradually, Without noticing it, Living along some distant day Into the answer.
