More Questions Than Answers
More questions than answers. What would happen if we asked more questions? Why don’t we ask more questions? How would people respond if we asked more questions? What would blogs look like if writers asked more questions?
I have a lot of questions, but I refrain from asking many of them. One of the things I love about little children is that they ask questions about everything. They are so inquisitive! When did we stop being openly inquisitive? Why did we stop? What would life be like if we regained and rediscovered our inquisitive selves? Who really has the answers?
Is the journey more important than the destination? Is the process more important than the product?
Would we share more with others and in turn receive more from them if we learned to question again?

Yes, the journey is definitely more important than the destination! In fact, I believe that it's the point. The beauty of life, the meaning of life and a passion for it is found in that journey. And, for what it's worth, the journey becomes even more significant when you intentionally gather community to join with you on the journey.
That's my two-cents.
I love the idea of intentionally gathering community. Perhaps, if we lived in a small village in some place that doesn't exist anymore, we would have automatic community. But I'm fairly certain we won't find that place. Community takes effort. For different types of community, check out Parker Palmer's book - A Hidden Wholeness. Good stuff!
