"Questioning is at the heart of spiritual journeying,
of literally leaving home for a time to go on a pilgrimage,
retreat or vision quest, of removing ourselves from the
duties and dramas, the relationships and roles that bombard
us with messages that may be distracting or irrelevant
or even destructive to an emerging or affirmative
sense of self, and that interfere with our asking for
responses to our burning questions:

Who am I?
What matters?
What is my gift?
What is my purpose?"
