A teacher once told us that life is a difficult exam and each one has a different question paper. Therefore, copying others answers would not help.
Albert Einstein decreed
" Learn from yesterday.
Live for today.
Hope for tomorrow.
The important thing is not to stop questioning"
And as the saying goes "Charity begins at home", one has to start questioning oneself.
Tennessee Williams said,
" Life is an unanswered question,
but
let's still believe in the dignity
and
importance of the question"
Criss Jami laid it bare by saying
" Friends ask you questions;
enemies question you"
Lloyd Alexander hit the nail on the head in these words
" We learn more by
looking for the answer
to
a question and not finding it
than
we do from learning the answer itself"
In the epic Ramayana, Valmiki puts us in a quandary by stating
" We have no right to ask when a sorrow comes
'Why did this happen to me?'
unless
we ask
the same question for every joy that comes our way"
Shannon Alder simplified the concept in these words
" Life is as simple as these three questions.
What do I want?
Why do I want?
How will I achieve it?"
Richard Norton exemplified the role of questions in these words,
" Questions open a space in your mind
that allow
better answers to breathe"
Manoj Arora clarified the role of questions as under
" Doubts are good.
Confusion is excellent.
Questions are awesome.
All these are attempts to expand the wisdom of mind"
In the words of Gary Keller,
" Life is a question and how we live it is our answer"
Thus, the questions which form the fulcrum of our very existence forms the next life lesson in this series A to Z and as Gary Keller puts it we need to live out the answer.
