Reading for 7 Creation

Asking the right questions, instead of asking for the right answers, allows us to know the function rather than the effect of our choices. The following is a commonly posed question that reflects one’s outlook on life: “Is the glass half empty or half full?” This question presupposes that the answer can be only one of two possibilities. However, the Truth of Opposites, as I heard one elder put it, poses a different question altogether: “Is the glass the right size?” ...This is just one example of the way in which we limit ourselves through our perception of choice.
