Title

Questions That Matter

Description

Questions expand future possibilities. Answers stifle them.

Don't come to this session looking for answers, nor wisdom pouring forth from the facilitator. Come to this session prepared to think, reflect and share. The questions we will explore are deeply philosophical.We will, together, inquire into a number of topics I hope will stimulate participants to reimagine, reconstruct, realign, rebalance, reclaim, renew, and rethink their lives. It's a tall order, but one I am certain Mensa members will relish.
