Perhaps somewhere, someplace deep inside your being, you have undergone important changes while you were sad.

And I circle ten thousand years long; And I still don't know if I'm a falcon, a storm, or an unfinished song

Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart. Do not despair if the answers don't come immediately. Some answers are only revealed with the passage of time.

---

And now we welcome the new year, full of things that have never been

---

I want to be with those who know secret things or else alone.

---

I am so glad you are here. It helps me realize how beautiful my world is.

---

I want to unfold. Let no place in me hold itself closed, for where I am closed, I am false.

Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love.

Be out of sync with your times for just one day, and you will see how much eternity you contain within you.

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 now 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 then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.
