I like asking questions. Asking questions opens doors we didn't even know existed. At the end of class we are typically prompted to ask questions and often there are none, maybe one or two. I am just as guilty as anyone else with regards to this. I know I have questions, there are always more questions. However when it comes time to ask, I have nothing.
There is always something else to know. It was mentioned that so much of what we learn is watered down from generation to generation because we don't ask enough questions. Think of all the opportunities we lose simply because we are too afraid to ask.
This week I am dedicated to always thinking of something to ask. Whether I am at home, work and especially at the kwoon. I'm making it my mission to ask more and assume less. It is too early to say if I have made any real progress, but if I stay consistent with this, I'm sure it will be to my benefit.
Be curious, people! There is so much to learn and so little time to learn it! After all, if you don't have any questions, are you truly mindful and engaged in where you are and what your doing?
