i don't think chris or rilke or hurston would disagree with you, kelvin.  
there's a significant (although at times blurry) difference between being 
"comfortable" with questions and being "content with just questions"...  the 
point IS to be moving toward an answer, but i think that we also have to 
accept that many answers don't come easily or quickly, but we can't sit 
around waiting for a clear path instead of accepting the answers we receive, 
accepting that we will never receive some answers, and living life fully 
regardless...
