Where do we belong?
Questions: What choice today, little one? Is the system alive? The length of the coastline, Mr. Mandelbrot? Can you be the same person every year? Where do we belong? (ooh!) Is there more depth to us? What’s a person? What questions can you ask to hold up a social mirror to us? Are hugs important? Are we stretchable?
There are plenty and this gives me the flavor. Questions are shot through us, questions pull our stories forward, the ones we tell, the ones we create, the ones we live. We have only to stop, look, and listen. Yes?

Asker of good questions
Perhaps this is a role I can embrace and sing: An asker of good questions. A question-asker, not exactly a questioner.

Questions as story material
What questions might be material for stories? Or maybe the other way around: what questions might stories create for us?
:- Doug.
stories for kids
The old man earth poem is working to developing material for new stories with the kids. Developing material! That says creating!

How do you start the conversation?
How do you start the conversation? Know when it’s time? Hard for you? Have an outline?

Old man earth
Old man earth
continually rolls over
in his bed
from west to east
if you hope to count
the stars better
start in the west
