What Do You Need to Ask Someone Before They Die?

Obviously, everyone is going to die, that much is obvious. However, how many relationships have never fully been realized or resolved due to the people involved not having a full, honest and forthright conversation about who they are and how they feel? Part of living a “good” life is connecting with the people that matter most to you on the deepest level possible. Such a connection requires vulnerability as well as the surfacing of many past regrets, struggles, and pent-up emotions. In many ways I think it is more important to really know someone in this intimate way than it is to spend copious amounts of time with them, and since you never know when you or that person will leave this life, now is the time to sit down, speak, ask questions, and wade through the discomfort so that you can arrive on the other side of a deeper, more sincere love. This could be your parent(s), your friends, your siblings, or really anyone. If you have to even think for a moment about whether or not you need to do this with “so and so” person, then likely you need to. Yes, the other person or people have to be receptive and open to this process, and if they are not, then all you can do is attempt to resolve the situation within yourself by doing the best you can. In either case, you need to consider these questions for yourself as well. Though this is by no means a comprehensive list, it is a great place to start and I will continue to add more questions as they present themselves over time.
