Book Quote: A Year by the Sea by Joan Anderson

"Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves. 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 answers. "

 ~Written by Rainer Maria Rilke
    Letter to a Young Poet


Another quote from this book that I love is, " I must learn to surrender in the moment."


I found these in a book that I am reading called, A Year by the Sea by Joan Anderson. It is a great book about the reflections of a woman who had lived her life taking care of her family, putting herself on the backburner (as most women do), until the family moves on ...her drastic decision to find herself shocks everyone, including herself.

My best friend Kristine Raymond gave this book to me and it is a great read! I think it would make a great gift for any woman :)

I definitely recommend this book to all women!

Take Care xx
