Great post, thank you for sharing that experience.

It immediately reminded me of the following list of questions that I've kept in my 'Scribblings' file for years. (This file is mostly memorable quotes, but also some a-ha moments and thoughts of my own.)

Conversation starters (starters of "real" conversation):

- What is your most memorable childhood experience? (Or, tell me about "a memorable" childhood

experience.)

- What is the most intense emotion you've experienced in the last 48 hours?

- What do you aspire to? (Gibran quote)

- What do you want from life? (Rhythm of Life book)

- What would you attempt if you knew you could not fail? (Schuller interview)
