I beg you, to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer. — Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

I’m a veteran of the United States Army infantry with service in Iraq, 2009. The military hands out cheap tokens like this to soldiers and service members in an attempt to fill the void where their conscience use to be once they indoctrinate it out of you… but that didn’t work on me, so I’m here to return my Global War on Terrorism medal, and my National Defense medal because they’re both lies. — Greg Miller, “No NATO, No War”: U.S. Veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan Return War Medals at NATO Summit (via pieceinthepuzzlehumanity)
