“I want to beg you, as much as I can, dear sir to be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in 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.” ― Rainer Maria Rilke

Hua Hin Jazz Festival
I went to the Hua Hin Jazz Festival this weekend. It was a lot of fun. Hua Hin is a beach near Bangkok. It takes about five hours on a bus to get there. The King actually lives there instead of Bangkok. We listened to bands and threw the Frisbee on the beach. The next day I took photos of a temple nearby. Lots of monks live there. No one spoke any English. I wish I could have asked them questions. My knowledge of the Thai language is very inadequate. The Thai language does not use Roman letters like the English alphabet does. I think it would be difficult to learn to read it.
