Live the questions

Umm long time no posts. What have I been doing? Lots. But I am going to get back into this I promise. I had an amazing shoot on Friday and these clients just walked into my life and basically changed me forever. How great is that?

We were talking about making the decision to have children with your partner and how to go about that. Their advice was to just explore the possibility together. EXPLORE. What an amazing gift that was. That word is. Just explore it. Try it on. Ask each other what it will look like, what our fears are, what are hopes are. It actually can apply to anything.

Matt and Mary Ellen told me of this quote that they keep on their refridgerator by Rilke that helps them remember. They live by it. And so will I.

Here is the email from Matt with the quote:

Hi Jenny Loo!
First of all, thank you for an amazing experience on Thursday! The photo session, atmosphere, conversation, critters, everything...delightful. Following up on our conversations, here is the quote from Rilke that has been a such great source of comfort and guidance for us:

“I beg you...to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and 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


With clients like this guiding you through your life and love, I feel like the luckiest person ever.

Thanks.
