The Question Game...
I like to ask questions. I like to be asked questions. People like to talk about themselves because that's what they know the most about. I don't think it's a matter of being egotistical or self-absorbed. I see it as self-exploration- insight which is essential to the growth and understanding of oneself and better communication and connections with others. I believe in honesty and audacity- people are so afraid of their flaws and shortcomings that their insecurities can ultimately swallow up the potential for a more satisfying existence and force them to settle for much less than what they really want out of life.
SO...
This community is about your candid opinions, perspectives, and ideas. If you've learned anything new about yourself, or have been inspired by someone else, I've done my job.
Anyone can join, but this community is for your replies to my questions. (If you'd like posting access, please join
the_curious_2.) The only rules are honesty, openness, fearlessness, and consideration. Sometimes the questions may seem silly or arbitrary, but I think the tiny details are important too.
P.S. You are always free to reply anonymously. IPs are not logged, ever.

(The two posts in the memories section are for completely anonymous confessions, secrets, babbling...they're there for easy access anytime you want to spill your guts without being identified. Catharsis is good for you.)
