Adult Questions II - Jan 20

 Well, it turns out that open-ended questions are popular with BQ attendees.  Several questions from the link I provided last week were raised and discussed by the group.  It felt like a very good session, and I was encouraged enough to use this format again.  Look over the list and select a handful of questions that resonated with you, and bring them to the table.  We would all like to know what interests you.

A question has been submitted by an attendee to get the discussion started. "Tell the story of how you got one of your scars."  I read into the suggestion an ambiguity of the key term, "scar", which could be a physical scar, or perhaps a deeper scar that affects our thoughts and feelings.  You might want to come prepared for what may be shared, or perhaps, with an alternate topic if this one is too personal.

Adult Questions - But are they Big?

 Meeting on Friday, Jan 6, at 7:00 pm.  Check the newsletter or the weekly update for a sign-in link.

For this week's topic I turn to something I have not done before.  If you search for "questions for adults" you can find extensive lists of ice-breaker sorts of questions meant to get people talking.  The subject can be almost anything, but questions that make people reflect on themselves in some way seem to be the most interesting.   I find that people who attend my Big Questions forum LOVE to tell stories of their lives, and sometimes the stories actually relate to the topic I intended.  This week I won't have a specific topic, so there is no pressure to stay on track!

Here is a site with hundreds of questions.  I like 81 as a starting point: If you had a time machine, would you go back in time or into the future?  Sounds like an easy question, maybe, but I bet there will be a wide variety of perspectives on it.  Scan the list and bring your favorite question, and make it Big!
