"Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. 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 now. Perhaps you will find them gradually, without noticing it, and live along some distant day into the answer." ~ Rainer Maria Rilke

rip, parrot fishy.
"A fish may love a bird, but where would they live? " --
Drew Barrymore
** the largest of my inherited parrot fishes died yesterday. I went on to text my cousin who gave them to me. He said. " Don't be sad. He's now an angel fish. Give him a proper burial. Plant food! " He's a priest by the way, my cousin not the fish. They were his pets but gave them to me when he transfered parish.

Honore de Balzac

re-enlightened too
'In a profound sense every man has two halves to his being; he is not one person so much as two persons trying to act in unison. I believe that in the heart of each human being there is something which I can only describe as a "child of darkness" who is equal and complementary to the more obvious "child of light." ' ~Laurens van der Post
re-enlightened one
"Use what talents you possess; the woods would be very silent if no birds sang except those that sang best." ~Henry van Dyke
heartened also
"Ideals are like stars; you will not succeed in touching them with your hands. But like the seafaring man on the desert of waters, you choose them as your guides, and following them you will reach your destiny." ~Carl Schurz
