The Legion of Honor is one of my favorite places in the city, not just for its massive pillars and soaring ceilings and gorgeous art, but also for where it sits, at the crest of a hill overlooking the city, swaddled in misty ocean breeze.
This is one of the stone lions that sit at the entrance.
Somehow this shot captures how I’m feeling today: quiet, reflective.
Here’s what I’ll leave you with for the weekend:
Have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and 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 question now. Perhaps then, some day far in the future, you will gradually without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.
- Rainer Maria Rilke, translated by Stephen Mitchell
Love the questions. Live everything.
Starting: now.
