Feel free to share some of your answers in the comments! I’d love to know if these questions resulted in any lightbulb moments for you.
Thanks for reading!
These are most excellent questions!
If I had the chance to get a message out to a large group of people, what would it be? Love one another.
Do I celebrate the good things in my life? Yes! Particularly breathing!
Have I done anything worth remembering lately? I worked with abused, neglected and abused children and many of them have told me I was instrumental helping to save their lives. What more could I ever want?
Thanks for commenting, Bish. I love your answers. It sounds like you have a very meaningful job. What do you do?
And I love your message. 🙂
I worked for 23 years with abused kids. I’m retired now and write.
Wow, what an amazing role you had in so many lives. Sounds like you definitely earned your retirement.
George Clooney of course! Thank heavens for questions to put ones life into perspective!
Ah, but bonus question–did you know what role that question was referring to? For that particular role, I am Michael Keaton all the way. 🙂
Thanks for commenting!
Jenny, are you participating in A to Z? I can’t find you. Please send me your link if you can.
All great questions! These two especially hit home to me right now: “When was the last time I truly felt happy, and why?” and “What would I do if money weren’t an issue?”
I would chose Christian Bale, but him as Batman. 😉 And no, I don’t think Oprah should always be on her cover. She needs to mix things up a bit and put people she admires on the cover, and not be with them.
I totally agree! I get that after the Vogue shoot she felt it was so much fun to be a cover model, but enough already. It’s been YEARS.
I’m glad some of these provided good food for thought. And you got the drift of the Bale question–extra gold star for you!
Wonderful questions! That was my Q word too. I don’t celebrate the good things enough. Food for thought!
Thanks, Jess! You know what they say…great minds think alike. I’ll be sure to check out your post.
That was very thought provoking post. Happy a to z…
Thanks Chrystal. We’re over the halfway mark now!
If I remember, I’m going to devote a blog post to answering these one by one.
Awesome! Be sure to tag me so I don’t miss it, but I am going to try to stay in touch with you after the challenge.
