Living Questions

I’ve joined a project over on FLICKR where I need to take a new photo every single day for a year. What a huge project that is going to be. I’m on day 8 now, obviously day 7 yesterday. I had a hard time of it, seeing that I am not as talented as I thought I was. Not as creative as I’d like to be. Seeing the other amazing photo’s that people put up daily just rams that in to you.

Anyway, I saw this quote in someone else’s photo stream and thought it fitted the way I felt yesterday. And about life in general. We spend our time wondering why things happen, what the meaning of our lives are. But then you read this and it all seems to make sense. It probably doesn’t matter what the answers are, as long as your living life while they come to you.

“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions” – Raner Maria Rilke
