Explanation:

When we do not trouble ourselves about whether or not something is a work of art, if we just act in each moment with composure and mindfulness, each minute of our life is a work of art.” — Thich Nhat Hanh

Have you ever needed affirmation or validation that your path or work of art was worthy enough to continue?

If you have, you are not alone!

In Rilke’s first Letter to a Young poet, he writes a response to a letter to an ambitious young poet looking for validation of his work. The young poet had recently sent Rilke a collection of poems and asked for feedback.

Rilke’s response was blunt, but immensely poetic. Here is an excerpt:

You ask whether your verses are any good. You ask me. You have asked others before this. You send them to magazines. You compare them with other poems, and you are upset when certain editors reject your work. Now (since you have said you want my advice) I beg you to stop doing that sort of thing. You are looking outside, and that is what you should most avoid right now. No one can advise or help you — no one. There is only one thing you should do. Go into yourself. Find out the reason that commands you to write; see whether it has spread its roots into the very depths of your heart; confess to yourself whether you would have to die if you were forbidden to write. This most of all: ask yourself in the most silent hour of your night: must I write? Dig into yourself for a deep answer. And if this answer rings out in assent, if you meet this solemn question with a strong, simple “I must”, then build your life in accordance with this necessity; your whole life.
