The Kindness in a Question

"Questions are like gifts.  It's the thought behind them that the receiver feels.  Love is specific.  The more attention and time you give to your questions, the more beautiful the answers become."
― Glennon Melton

Not all questions are kind -- as most of us know.  But there can be great kindness in a question.  When we remember something that is important to the people about whom we care and ask them about it, we let them know that we care about them.

The quote from Glennon Melton is from an article that she wrote for The Huffington Post earlier this year, "The Questions That Will Save Your Relationships."  In the article, she writes about the beauty of questions -- especially specific ones -- and how they can help us get closer to the people we love.
