Questions Open the Mind

Summer can be a time to slow down and really talk to each other. Nothing satisfies me more than a good question.  Here are some I'd love to spend time with:


If you were to have a six month sabbatical, what would you do and where would you spend it?

How have you experienced the universe as intelligent? Loving?

Was there a time you knew you were not alone in the world, even if physically you were?

When have you been spared death or injury?  How do you interpret that close call?

What is your favorite place on earth?

What's a mysterious thing you've experienced?

Who is an eccentric person you know?

Who have been your best friends throughout your life? Do you have one now? What have you learned from them?

How has your idea of fun changed over time? What’s fun today?

What have you learned from betrayal? 

Who are the nourishing people in your life ? How often are you in contact with them?

Is there an event in your life that has most powerfully shaped you?

What’s the healthiest work environment you’ve ever been in? least healthy?

What question do you wish people would not ask you?

Who were your favorite teachers? Why?

What books have touched you? Changed you?

If talent and time were not an issue, what book would you write? What music would you compose? 
What would your art look like? What kind of dance would you dance?

Which of your ancestors do you wish you could talk to today?

Where in the world do you most want to travel? What calls you there?

What would you love to be asked?
