A Book of Questions

I found out a little journal called 'A Book of Questions' from one of my drawers. It is not a lovely journel with lots of open questions, you could extend your imagination freely and fill in whatever you like. And, it means that actually you are the author of this book.

There are numbers of interesting questions -
'What things would you do to change the world?'
'If you could be a flower, what would you be? (Draw it)'
'When are the time you feel most like hiding? Where would you like to go?'
'If you could climb a stairway of stars, what would you hope to find at the top?'
'How do you like to go crazy and have fun?'
'what are you most afraid of about growing up?'
'Tell me a great joke.'
'Someone has given you a million dollars, what would you do with it?'

Bill Zimmerman is the one who brought out such questions and put them into this little journal. He was a journalist and a prize winning editor. He is also a questioner and asked himself questions all the time.

When I flipped through the journal, many pages I had written are with the dates mentioned in 1998, that means I have had this book for almost 7 years. Some content looks a bit silly now, but most of them is still my voice in my heart!!

I obsessed to collect memory, all those little memorial journals in Form 5, diaries in my 17 and onwards, cards from my friends, photos, etc. are still stored in a big drawer, stayed with me wherever I live.

Surely, this blog is also another important piece!
