We have the ability, not obligation, to respond to our being by inquiring into its meaning. Though I don't agree with Socrates that the unexamined life is not worth living, I definitely think it's worthwhile to inquire into the meaning of our being. I usually feel free enough to question myself while answering. I usually even enjoy it. My most significant questions have only partial answers at best and trigger more questions, which I'm fine with. My answers aren't complete but they become fuller over time. Rilke said to love the questions, live the questions, and live into the answers, and I've become more that way over time. Questioning has helped me in my life by feeding my hunger for knowing and providing meaning, fascination, satisfaction, and growth.
