One Question leads to another???
Well, I donned those wellies back in early July and they have taken me to some wondrous and luminous places and each adventure has, of course, led to more questions. I have even called the word "question" into question... !!!
I thought it would be interesting to see what Webster's says...
ques·tion
noun \ˈkwes-chən, ˈkwesh-\Definition of QUESTION
1
a (1) : an interrogative expression often used to test knowledge (2) : an interrogative sentence or clauseb : a subject or aspect in dispute or open for discussion :issue; broadly : problem, matterc (1) : a subject or point of debate or a proposition to be voted on in a meeting (2) : the bringing of such to a voted : the specific point at issue
2
a : an act or instance of asking : inquiryb : interrogation; also : a judicial or official investigationc : torture as part of an examinationd (1) : objection, dispute question
Wow--suddenly the word "Question" seems so harsh. No wonder "Curiosity killed the Cat".
So, I decided to look into the word: Quest
1quest
noun \ˈkwest\Definition of QUEST
1
a : a jury of inquestb : investigation
2
3
obsolete : a person or group of persons who search or make inquiry
So, what I'm gleaning is that I'm on a quest... Perhaps, not a "chivalrous enterprise"; but, definitely an adventurous journey and part of my quest is to learn how to carefully craft my questions.
