"have patience with everything unresolved in your heart
and try to love the questions themselves
don't search for the answers
which could not be given to you now,
because you would not be able to live them
and the point is, to live everything
live the questions now"

or, as j. edward demming put it: "you do not have to change. survival is not mandatory."
