Locked Rooms

​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. 
— Ranier Maria Rilke

I'm taking this sentiment into my week and trying to just put my head down, do the work and not search for answers to questions I'm not sure how to ask, never mind process the answers.

It's tough knowing that the time isn't right for something.  

It's tough to feel like everything will always take forever and never arrive. 

It's tough to see things moving at such a glacial pace that it seems they're not moving at all.

But I know that I'll turn around at the end of this summer and see progress, see accomplishments, see the way that the incremental work has piled up... as long as I actually keep doing the work even when it doesn't seem to make any difference. 

Coffee helps. 

Have a good Monday everyone. XOX
