L I V E

“I would like to beg you, dear sir, as well as I can, to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to 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.” 

(Rainer Maria Rilke, 1903, from "Letters to a Young Poet")

L O V E

"Love is measles. 
The older you get it the worse the attack."

(Rainer Maria Rilke)

NORD-NORGE'S NATT...

Nord-Norges natt

i lys uten nåde

Ser du alt nakent til dom

Himmel og sjø slår lys

mot ditt fartøy

Vi kan ikke følge

du seiler alene

Ensomt lyttende mot vingeslag

Som viser vei

Til en høyere morgen

borte fra all angst

(Liv Nordhaug)
