#32 What kind of questions remain within you?

Over the past few days,
we have faced several questions.

None of them
provide an immediate answer
on how to make things work.

Rather,
in our daily lives,
they may have been questions that surfaced repeatedly.

For example, questions like these:

・Am I reacting right now, or am I choosing?
・What kind of words am I letting myself hear?
・The moment I think "I must do this," who is the agent of that action?

These are not
questions that end once you understand them.

In the midst of busyness,
you might suddenly forget them,
remember them again,
and each time, their meaning changes little by little.

They are that kind of question.

Here,
I would like to pause just once.

Not to find an answer,
and not to organize things.

Simply,
to feel
what kind of questions remain within you.

Perhaps,

・One particular question
　might be bothering you strangely.

・Though you cannot put it into words,
　a sense of discomfort
　might remain.

・Or,
　it might be the very feeling
　of "not knowing anything yet."

Whichever it is,
that is enough.

Questions
work better
when they remain ambiguous
than when they are clearly articulated.

Do not try to force a grasp on them,
do not force an answer upon them.

Just carry them with you as they are.

Today,
if you were to choose
just one question.

What kind of questions
remain within you?

Starting tomorrow,
we will raise our perspective a little,
and look toward the future.

The second habit,
"Begin with the end in mind."

We will quietly enter
into that first question.

Today, too, a small murmur.
A little bit of margin for your day.

May today's words
make your steps
just a little more certain.
