Crescendo
Page 14
Have you ever sensed the presence of someone who has died? How did this make you feel? Do you believe that people who have died can still be around you? How close do you think they are?
The old man tells the woman that “the earth turns on a kindness.” Was there a time in your life when someone showed a kindness to you, whether small or large, that touched you deeply? How did this kindness transform your day, your thoughts, or your emotions?
What do you think about the idea of parallel universes? Do they exist? Do we come into contact with them? What might your life be like in a parallel universe?
In your opinion, what happens after you die?
Do you believe that you create your own reality? To what degree is your reality created by your thoughts, beliefs, desires, and emotions? How is your outer reality a reflection of your inner reality? When has changing one changed the other?
The woman learns that the most important moment of her life was a kindness that she doesn’t even remember performing. What if life were measured in kindnesses rather than wealth, titles, and achievements? How would your definition of a successful life change? Would you consider yourself successful under this definition? What could you do to be more successful?
Think of an occasion when you showed a person, animal, or plant unconditional love, if only briefly. Imagine how it must have felt for the other to receive your love. How did this help the soul of that person, animal, or plant? How did it help your own soul?
If your life were a song, what kind of song would it be (a pop song, the blues, a classical symphony, etc.)? What would it sound like? Could you make it a different kind of song, if you wanted? What would you change it to? What would the lyrics be? Who is composing your song?
