twas the night of christmas

christmas night is here. I am going to fly to Europe tommorrow. I think I am under the weight limit for my luggage. I am checked in, I have my tickets, and have managed to miss the bad winter storm that has swept Iowa. I think all systems are a go.
I realized that I posted a few days ago hurriedly and forgot to give a definition of why I have the title living the questions. It stems from a quote I find a lot of inspiration in.
"Be patient toward all that in unresolved in your heart and try to live the questions themselves. Do not seek the answers that cannot be given to you. Because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything! Live the questions now. Perhaps you will gradually without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer." Rilke
My life is a bit chaotic now: I am traveling, trying to decide good career choices, my residency, wrestling with my life as a single woman, and learning to heal and practice a little medicine. So that is what this blog will be about. I hope you enjoy!!
