We all ponder various philosophical questions in some fashion or another on almost every single day of our lives. Back in July of this year, I decided to capitalize on this very thing by posing 10 questions of my own for each of you to think about. Because I was told on more than one occasion how they generated good spiritual conversations, I’ve decided to do this exercise again with 10 more. I hope all of you will take a little bit of time to reflect on each of them and may your spirituality be blessed in the process…
1. You are in a group of people where one of them is making severely racist jokes or comments. What do you do?
2. If you knew you only had one day left to live, how would you spend it?
3. If you were suddenly given one million dollars tax free, what would you do with it?
4. If you had the ability to change one aspect of the entire world all at once, what would it be?
5. Where would you say the majority of your happiness is coming from these days?
6. You’re having lunch with several people whom you love and cherish when they abruptly all start criticizing a close friend of yours, not knowing that person is your friend. What do you do?
7. If you could effectively communicate one piece of advice to all newborn children in the world where it would change each of their lives forever, what would it be?
8. If you had to be stranded on an island with one and only one person for the rest of your life, who would you want it to be?
9. If you could instantly change one and only thing about yourself permanently, what would it be?
10. If you could instantly change one and only one thing about your closest friend, spouse, or significant other permanently, what would it be?
And here’s one more for good measure:
11. What three things are you the most grateful for at this very moment?
Peace, love, light, and joy,
