After launching the 23 Question project I think it is
time to explain it a bit more. The idea just came one day. It is
nothing new or ground breaking. People have been asking and answering
questions about themselves for hundreds of years, and in doing so other
people have wanted to hear them. We are all somewhat voyeuristic. We
want to look into the lives of others, maybe compare them to our own,
or look for something else. Quoting the Reluctant Oracle, "you will
find your answers in the secrets of others."
There is no right way, or wrong way to answer these
questions. It is
your choice to answer them and be part of the project, then do so
proudly in any way that you may choose, if not then so be it, although
not answering them is an answer in its self. Since the answers started
coming back to me I have been surprised in the frankness and honesty I
have seen. I have also been amazed at the number of people that have
been reading them. Am I tickling both sides of voyeurism, the looker
and the looked. It is a small movement in a smaller town, or are people
looking for answers that they can't find. More than once I have heard
after the questions were done that the participant felt a since of
liberation. Whatever the reason people are getting involved I applaud
them and hope many more will fallow suite. |
