These questions make for enriching dinner table conversation, but they can be equally illuminating if you simply ask them of yourself. I stumbled onto the idea of asking big questions because I needed them myself. They drive our growth, and we can come back to them year after year.
- How open are you to people who are different from you?
- Consider ways in which you feel (or have felt) vulnerable, disempowered or oppressed
- How do you feel about interacting with people from other cultures?
- What group(s) of people do you think are most like you?
- Are there any groups of people you feel as though you could not interact with?
- If you dig deep, what are your stereotypes and prejudices?
Food for thought at any dinner party — I, too, would rather discuss big questions than make small talk. Great post!
