“you are so young, so much before all beginning, and I would like to beg you, dear Sir, as well as I can, to be patient toward all that is unresolved in your heart, and to try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms or like books written in a very foreign tongue. do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given to you, because you would not be able to live them. and the point is, to live everything. live the questions now. perhaps you then will gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.”

                            { rainer maria rilke, letters to a young poet }

what you want.

                 

to get what you want, you need to know what you want.

to get what you want, you need to know what’s in your way.

to get what you want, you need to focus & know.  know that you’ll get it, somehow, some way.



{do you know what you want?  what is it?}

I wrote this in the sand this morning, not realizing it was Dr. Seuss’ birthday today.   It’s almost as if his words were in the back of my mind.

those limits you have in your head…

                 

                                         …are exactly that. 

                                          just in your mind. 

                                                imaginary.


                       you are unbounded, undefined, without limit.

nothing is the be all end all.

                 

so you missed it.  the party of the century.  the trip of a lifetime.  the chance to meet your idol.  

so you didn’t get it.  the acceptance letter.  the leading role.  the guy/girl who you pine for.  

so you aimed and you missed.  

so what?

nothing is the be all end all.  nothing is do or die.  nothing is your one shot at happiness.  

there will be another chance soon.  and another.  and another.  and another.  

and one day, one of those chances will land smack in the middle of that bullseye you want to reach.  

perfectly and gloriously in place.
