"...What might have been is an abstraction
Remaining a perpetual possibility
Only in a world of speculation.

Footfalls echo in the memory
Down the passage which we did not take
Towards the door we never opened
Into the rose-garden."
It's such a brilliant and romantic way to evoke a sense of nostalgia, longing, and possibilities." — 10 hours, 29 min ago

“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. 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 answer.”
