“Perhaps somewhere, some place deep inside your being, you have always known and pressed up to the joyous truth that you are waiting for. ”
— Rainer Maria Rilke

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, deep inside us, we already know something important and positive about ourselves that we are waiting to realize. Imagine a child who loves drawing but feels unsure if they are any good at it. They keep practicing and hoping, secretly sensing they have talent. One day, a teacher praises their artwork, and they finally see the truth they always felt inside—they are good at drawing. This quote suggests we might already have an inner understanding or confidence about our abilities or truths, and we just need to recognize and embrace it. To apply this idea, trust your intuition and believe in your inner feelings about who you are and what you can achieve, even if it takes time for those truths to become clear.
