no matter how hard we try
we always change
into people we'd never thought we'd become back in the day
and i don't really wanna see you
cuz i know you won't be the same
but i'll never stop being jealous of those hipsters you date

And you wait. You wait for the one thing
that will change your life,
make it more than it is-
something wonderful, exceptional,
stones awakening, depths opening to you.
In the dusky bookstalls
old books glimmer gold and brown.
You think of lands you journeyed through,
of paintings and a dress once worn
by a woman you never found again.
And suddenly you know: that was enough.
You rise and there appears before you
in all its longings and hesitations
the shape of what you lived.
-Rainer Maria Rilke

A couple days ago I was wearing a shirt with a big "P" on it. I was walking back to my building and as I was passing an old man with a cane, he stopped and pointed at my shirt and asked, "P?"
I stopped and shrugged, not knowing how to explain the shirt. He said, "It's a mystery...life is a complete mystery." I smiled and said, "Yes." He nodded and kept walking.
He is old, and I think beginning to lose his mind...I could hear it in the tone of his voice. I go in and out of thinking life is a complete mystery, but in that moment I completely trusted him. Life is a mystery? Ok, that's fine.
