"What's going on in your heart right now?"
This simple Love question has the potential to create immediate intimacy.
Looking directly into another's eyes, ask this Love question and silently
give time for your friend, date, spouse, child, or co-worker to respond.
Some may wonder inside if you truly want to know. Let your smile,
eyes, and heart tell them "Yes!"
Asking Love questions is the mark of a LoveMaster - someone who is an
expert at creating intimacy. When was the last time someone asked
you "What's going on in your heart?" When was the last time you
asked someone this question? Imagine how much love we can add to the
world by asking this simple question!
And you can ask this question to anyone. In our own marriage, we ask this
question to each other often. It enables us to tune into each
other's inner heart. Even in a close relationship, it's amazing how
swiftly inner lives change direction and focus.
How can you remain intimate without knowing the thoughts of the inner
heart? Asking this question says to a another: "I treasure you so
much that I truly want to know what's happening in your innermost being."
Who can resist such love? Who doesn’t need such love?
"What is the most significant thing going on in your life right now?"
This is another outstanding Love question and, when asked genuinely from
your heart, creates instant intimacy - with anyone.
One day, while traveling, Scott stopped for lunch. When the waitress
came for his order, she looked sad and Scott's heart immediately went out
to her. He looked her directly in the eyes and said: "What's the most
significant thing going on in your life right now?" She looked at
him with surprise and said, "Do you really want to know?" "I sure do," he
said, feeling totally at ease with being Love's expression. She
reached for her order book, folded back the tickets and showed him a
picture: "This is my daughter. She's sixteen months old and is the
love of my life. I'm doing the best I can to raise her." In
less than 15 seconds, she had shared her inner heart. Imagine the
loss - to Scott and this waitress - of not asking Love's question!
"What is your passion?"
That’s another great Love question. When you meet someone new,
rather than asking what they do, or where they live, ask them, “What is
your passion?” You will be amazed at how openly and immediately
people will answer this if you ask with a sincere, open heart.
Almost instantaneously, you will know this person in a significant way.
They will feel loved, your hearts will bond, and the universe will
immediately be filled with more love.
"On a scale of 1 to 10, how loved do you feel right now?"
This is one of a LoveMaster's advanced Love questions. This
insightful question unites hearts and reveals what is needed for
love to advance even higher.
If a person answers, "Well, about a 6," ask them, "What would make it a
10?" Both of you will be surprised at how revealing - and love
enriching - it is to discover the answer. How loved do you really
want your friend, spouse, child, or co-worker to feel? If you truly
want them to experience maximum love, this question will clarify what is
needed for that to happen. If you don’t ask, you won’t know.
This is a win-win question. Think of it as an information question,
not a judgment question. True love is always transparent.
When you ask Love questions - to everyone - you will experience the joy
that constantly flows through the life of a LoveMaster. Hearts will
be revealed and healed. Your life will leave a wake of love that will not
soon be forgotten. And humanity will feel the tangible evidence of
visible love. Welcome to the heart of Love!
