Conscious questioning

Where will my mind take me? What journey will be my destiny? How deep and wide can my creativity go? Is there a limit to what I can be, what I can achieve, attain? Should I not live with more questions than answers?

Too often I am busy creating solutions and finding answers. Too often I am too busy to allow the questions to surface. To question, we must allow ourselves to become comfortable in the unknown. On the precipice of discovery, we have no answers, and when an answer surfaces, we are no longer at the boundary between the known and unknown. Should I not continue to explore the questions rather than the answers? If the questions are still filled with so much unlimited potential, how exciting will the day be when I just go off to question everything?

The questions allow the inner child to return and play in the world where there is endless freedom to play. What will I ask? How will I explore? Why am I doing what I am doing? The trap is to be so arrogant in our knowing that we stop asking the questions. We limit ourselves by our fixation on our truths rather than breaking its chains to discover deeper, more profound perspectives on truth.

Let us be bold enough to dare venturing on a quest of conscious questioning, so that our fixed paradigms melt and our inner creativity sparks again into a vibrant flame of pioneering deep into the uncharted world of the unknown and the impossible. New truths awake to be discovered.
