Which is Most Important: The Question or the Answer?

Which is more important in challenging us to live richer, fuller lives?

The other day, I stumbled across this amazing quote:

“Perhaps the secret of living well is not in having all the answers but in pursuing unanswerable questions in good company.” – Rachel Naomi Remen

Rereading it a few times got me thinking….

  1. What are the unanswerable questions?
  2. How can discussing them enrich our lives?

I don’t yet have the answers, but I feel inexplicably drawn towards this pursuit.

How could meaningful conversation with people we respect grow us into living better lives?

I’m challenging myself to engage in the unanswerable this week.

Will you join me?
