i beg you... to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. 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. perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer... (ranier maria rilke)
To thine own self be true.
The moment you settle for less than you deserve, you end up with even less than what you settled for.
Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end.
