Ask for what you want.
Ask for what you need.
Ask without fear.
I ask myself these questions, here and now:
- Where do I want to live?
- What will make me happy?
- How can I achieve peace?
- What can I do to make the world better?
- How much time do I have?
- What lyrics should I write to this song?
- What do you want? Â A YouTube video that shows a complete performance?
- Do my readers recognize guitarist Pat Metheny and saxophonist Michael Brecker, the two musicians my surgeon played during my open heart surgery on September 21?
- When will I recover from my open heart surgery?
- How do I stay sane in today’s political environment?
- Is somebody trying to sell me something?
- How can people feel safe enough?
- How can I be welcoming to others and also feel welcomed myself?
- Where did I get the inspiration for today’s post?

Finally, I ask that you accept my gratitude for all who helped me create this post and for YOU, no matter what you’re asking today.
I hope, that you are able to answer or find answers, as you can live with, Ann 🙂
Thank you for this lively answer and hopeful comment, Irene.
Today, I am all questions.
You are?
I dunno Ann — your Ask photos seemed very…mmmm…busy today. I don’t need to ask why they caught your attention. And I ask myself the same questions. So far the cosmos has been quiet, leaving me to make up my own answers.
I love the answers you make up, Claudia.
Some questions are more important than answers! Especially when the answer is unknown 😉
Keep trucking along Ann 💕
Thanks for this unquestionably important answer, Val.
An interesting thing about the history of science is that toward the end of the 19th and into the early 20th century scientists thought they would soon have answers to all the questions of the universe. The discovery of genetics opened up new possibilities in biology but some believed chemistry and physics were dead-end fields. Radioactivity, relativity, and quantum theory opened up an almost infinite number of questions scientists never dreamed of.
So keep on asking. Every answer raises more questions.
You have the most interesting answers, Chris.
I ask for this dish I see here
You’ve got it!
Ask, what type of person does one want to be, kind and warm hearted or cold and cold hearted, I hope people see me as kind and warm hearted
I’m sure people see you that way, Joanne.
Ann,
Want the remain sane in not just today’s, but any day’s political environment?
RISE ABOVE IT. In the end it comes down to light or darkness. We have to choose a side.

Thanks for the light of your answer, Alan.
I think we spend much of our lives asking questions and searching for answers. I suppose it’s all part of the learning process. I search for answers to many questions every day, and sometimes succeed. Lovely post, Ann. I hope 2017 will be a happy one for you.
It’s so lovely to see you here, Millie. Again, I learn from you.
You already make the world better, so not to worry about that one. I can’t believe it’s been four months!
You made my blog better today!
It took me most of a lifetime to learn to ask
Asking the right questions is the first step to problem solving.
