there's a power in asking a question that allows the askee the define the question (really!)

seems like a valuable conversational technique, especially with someone you don't know well or whose depths you are trying to mine: get them to ask themself the question and then to answer it This may also be a great stalled conversation technique! "Hey, what's a question you'd love for someone to ask you?" (Also I had fun replying to this non-ask Ask)

asking questions

Better conversations guaranteed. Dig deep! It’s amazing how many ppl haven’t cultivated this fundamental skill.

ask a good unique question

build yourself a roster of lighthearted yet thinky questions. some one mine: ”if you could suddenly speak any extra language, what language?” “are you a cowboy, pirate or knight?” (very telling) and my personal favourite, “if you were a weather phenomenon, what would you be?” (i’d be a sun shower, btw)

We appreciate nature

And we criticize people. Strange somehow. try to do it the other way round. What an ugly tree (sounds ridiculous)! What a beautiful soul. You will end appreciating people and nature.

A painting

By Angelos Merges. It’s technically beautifully painted and slightly uncanny. The last remaining human beings gather after a apocalypse to discuss the questio: what should we do now?
