Live the questions

“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.”

- Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

Learning to love and live the question is a generative way of navigating uncertainty and dancing with complexity. Come and join us for a monthly, lightly-hosted Sunday evening exploring a question. Tea and snacks available, BYOB if you wish, donations gratefully accepted. 

This month’s question is: How might we fall more in love with the place in which we live?

What to expect

Come by any time between 6-8pm for a cup of tea or a beer and a winding, reflective discussion with friends, neighbours and strangers. Meet new folk in the town, make connections, speak soul to soul on the important questions for these times. There will be paper and pens for any drawing or notes. You’re also welcome to hang out and just listen if you don’t feel comfortable joining in on the discussions.

We will sit in the courtyard if it is sunny, or gather in the living room space of The Convivial if it’s wet.

The question for the next month’s gathering will be generated through the session.

Drop in - no booking required.
