Day 10: 20 Questions

I think I could honestly say that each of us have filled out a "Meme Survey" in the past. You know the ones....a survey that question you - thus making it all me, me, me. In the beginning stages of a marriage/relationship we do that, don't we? Ask question after question to make sure we are with "the one". Once you're married, though, and living together EVERY DAY, it's sometimes easy to feel like there's nothing left to say. Try these questions to jump-start some lively discussions between you. * If you could keep just one memory, which memory would you keep? * How would you describe your ideal day? your ideal weekend? your ideal vacation? * If you could spend one uninterrupted hour with any person alive, who would it be? why? * If out house caught fire (and everyone was safely out) what three things would you most want to save? why? * What do you want your life to be like at 70? This topic is dear to me because Troy and I often do this on long trips to make the time go faster. On most occasions it's prompted by passing a billboard that says the lotto is currently as some crazy amount. Then we talk about what we would do if we had that kind of money. In the end we laugh together because we both say, "now, if only we actually bought lotto tickets!" It's interesting though, to see our priorities change each time. We find that just by sparking a new conversation we learn things that we may not have known before. That's your goal here. Don't assume you know everything. Whether you've been married for 5 years or 50 years there's always more to learn about the mate you've chosen. Go for it! Make this FUN ladies!! Oh, and one more thing - do not take anything personal! This is a conversation, NOT a debate!! If you ask your honey, "If you could spend one uninterrupted hour with any person alive, who would it be? why?" and he doesn't say YOU - don't get offended. You asked, let him answer.
