Thanks sister Awralla this helped me through a bump in the road, Therefore, dear sir, love your solitude and try to sing out with the pain it causes you. For those who are near you are far away... space around you is beginning to grow vast...be happy about your growth, in which of course you cant take anyone with you, and be gentle with those who stay behind; be confident and calm in front of them with your faith or joy, which they wouldnt be able to comprehend. Seek out some simple and true feelings you have in common with them, which doesnt necessarily have to alter when you yourself change again and again; when you see them love life in a form that is not your own, and be indulgent toward those growing old, who are afraid of the aloness that you trust... and dont expect any understanding; but believe in a love that is being stored up for you like an inheritance, and have faith that in this love there is strength and a blessing so large that you can travel as far as you wish without having to step outside it. Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet
