The Oprah Winfrey site has some amazing and encouraging information and I thought this essay by author Jane Hirshfield about question-asking is a winner.
It is lengthy but gets the message across about the liberating effects of asking questions and getting answers that inspire.
As a journalist, I'm asking questions all the time and the kind of questions that engender more than single-word answers.
Hirshfield is right in her essay of how questions can be windows to many things and a way to move forward even.
I believe answers to questions increase our knowledge.
I feel I increase my knowledge a little, bit by bit every day with the number of people I talk to about so many different subjects.
It is definitely a rewarding job, being in the business of asking questions.
I hope this is inspiring for you too!
Enjoy!
BTO.
