JUST A THOUGHT

Why does thinking seem to cause so much upset?

Why is questioning so often misconstrued as a personal attack?

It seems to me a shame that we can not have open discussion and differing opinions without it causing an argumentative reaction.

What is so evil about questions?

Am I exhausting you?

Well I will try and act with love as I am not out to harm you but I guess I shouldn’t be sorry.

What am I apologising for?

Questions are not evil.

Not if you are asking someone to open their mind or try and see a different viewpoint.

They are not intrusive.

I am not putting anyone in danger.

I am merely asking one to have some empathy or look a little further.

Challenging a viewpoint is not the same as waging a war.

Yet it seems to cause conflict in so many.

I am not expecting the final answer, the be it and end all of my questions.

Only the answers of your experience.

So I can gather the pieces together in the hope that the picture may seem a little clearer.

I do not wish to be blind.

I wish to make the most of all of my senses.

Am I to be penalised for wanting this?

I know I am not alone in this.

Or maybe I am…

Who knows? Oh look, another question.
