“Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart....live in the question.”
We have plenty of unresolved mysteries in our lives. Dreams, hopes, feelings, emotions, and life, in general, haven't turned out the way we hoped for. For some of us, it's frustrating and for others it's adventurous. For spiritual people, it is of advent. Waiting patiently. Unresolved things in our hearts are showing we are willing to engage with the future.
Advent is a time of prayer for all whose hopes and dreams haven't come to fruition. I wonder who could this be applied to? I wonder if there is any person on earth whose hopes have come true and there is nothing more left to wait for! If you do, then you will have reached the "Nirvana", meaning a state of eternal bliss. We can get there if all our senses are mastered, and all our desires are conquered.
Until that time we master all of our senses and desires, we learn to hope for the best and leave the rest behind, let us live in the question of the unresolved mysteries of life.
