Questions asked but never answered
Rhetorical questions that don’t wait for answers
Many queries that rise in the mind of people, young and old
Questions that need to be answered seriously and yet remain unanswered
Are there any questions? She asked at the end of her talk and many hands went up. They all had one question for her; Did she really meant it when she offered to help the students?
I chose this line from Paula’s list;
Are there any questions? –Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale (1986)
Written for Paula’s RFP # 8

I didn’t have a clue how to respond to Paula’s prompt and you handled that #35 on the list very well.

Thanks a lot Jim! It was a different sort of prompt this week. I went with something familiar.

I think faith is one big question. It is hard to seperate myth and man-made retoric and rules from something that some believe we cannot touch or see. Which goes along with another biggie ‘Is there life (before or) after a human death?
I did have professors that did offer help and followed through. 🙂

Very true Jules. The waters have been muddied by centuries of man-made addition to some of the religious doctrine. We need to find our own truth.

One truth I know is that kindness can shine from many different sources. People can be different in many ways. And still get along.
Your kindess shines bright 🙂 💖

We need to have an open mind to receive the answers

Yes, Parikhit, some questions cannot be answered to the satisfaction of the enquirer.

my daughter is a teacher and goes crazy when the kids ask the same question over and over. Mostly when they were on zoom and kept their screens off so they weren’t listening. but there are no stupid questions! so important to clarify. 💖

I get that from my grandson too. He’s often too engrossed in his books or games to listen.
