The Restorative Power In Your Questions
Don’t you love it when people pause to ask you an appropriate question? You could make a big difference in your life if you found an extra moment each day to ask someone a question.
I noticed some time ago that my blogs are often full of questions. My ego usually stays in place when I ask. Yes, I have found that asking instead of telling is good for my spiritual well-being.
Further, I am more accessible with questions. Holding conversations may not be everybody’s strong suit, but we are more likely to connect if we show enough interest to ask. You will be more open to my ideas if I am available to yours. Have you noticed how some people dominate conversations? It’s almost like you need to schedule someone to call you at a particular time so you can ease out. You don’t even want to try to get a word in edgewise because there is no mutuality. These are friends you may love, but they never bothered to find out how brakes work.
In some cases, you may need to temporarily cut off contact with that person for your own health. There may be an outside chance they will ask you why you haven’t been in touch. Even then, your honesty can trigger people because talking can be an addiction. They may know that questions are good for relationships, but will they admit their powerlessness to change?
