Making deeper connections in life requires us to be genuinely curious about other people. Pretty obvious, right? But how often do you approach the people in your life with something deeper than surface level small talk?
What are the things we’re afraid of, that prevent us from getting deep? Is it the fear of being judged or rejected if we show too much of our true selves, or do we worry that others might find us insubstantial on closer inspection?
We need to rid ourselves of these and other fears. Life is short and precious and we all deserve to be seen in all our glory and our insecurity with love.
So consider this a PSA - if you’re feeling disconnected and craving authentic connection, ask more questions of the people in your life and encourage it of others. It doesn’t need to be an interrogation, it can be deep and fun or serious, emotional even. All it requires of you is imagination, understanding, respect and to try letting go of your fears about how it might go.
I’m going to ask someone questions to the community, feel free to try them out in your offline life. ❤️
