@amiablePeace77
I guess it would depend on who I get to ask the question to. That would definitely change the question I'd ask.
@thoughtfulmomma I agree
@thoughtfulmomma @SoulfullyAButterfly
What about anyone? 
What would be the most important thing to know in your life?
@amiablePeace77
I'd probably want to ask my grandparents a lot of questions about everything.
Will anybody (especially a certain someone I won't mention by name) ever love me?
@WharfRat
I hope you will get that answer one day
I looked at the layout of a garden plaza, and when I realized that I didn't get any respond for it; I asked myself: What and why I design although many persons don't believe that I am an architect?
@DinaElwy
There are so many misconceptions about how a person of a certain profession "should" look like and unfortunately sometimes even related to gender, like "Architecture is for Men" but hey, what does it count what other's think, if it's your passion?
I really want to ask when this pandemic will end- but then- would I be able to cope with the answer. Even looking at another month is overwhelming.
@barncat
barncat, I think many people would join you in this question including me. It's tough and it's no fun having to stay at home all the time. I still believe though, better this way than taking risks. I find it amazing what things are offered now free of charge on the internet, for example free virtual zoo tours or even museum tours in The Louvre, Van Gogh Museum, The Vatican Museum, British Museum , Metropolitan Museum of Art. ....
Agreed it's very hard on the nerves but we owe it to ourselves and loved ones to stay safe really @barncat
@mooboxer- i totally agree- but i see a lot of people bending the social distancing rules or flaunting them altogether. In the meantime I have been trying to hard to be careful.
Us too we are doing click and collect shopping from our local supermarket, it's safer than going in as I've got a 4 week old grandson and an 80 year old Mum and I have to stay safe for them !@barncat
I want to ask why don't I do what normal people do? Is it a choice I'm making or do I not know how or am I not capable?
@HappyDucky8
It's tough to feel like being different or not "normal" but I too have asked myself this question in the past many times and found out from friends that they are asking themselves the same question. I do not believe there is anything like for example media claims for being "normal", all people have their challenges, flaws but also strengths.
@amiablePeace77
i am probably autistic so I really am oblivious to how to seem acceptable to others so they will be my friend or be a nice colleague
@HappyDucky8 , if some people cannot see the beauty in you then it's their loss. I hope You continue to be that beautiful person you are and people who recognise it will be your friends.
@faithlove1111
i don't have any friends and never will. It doesn't matter
Mmmmm... a difficult question indeed. But I am at a phase of training myself to accept so I chose to ask a simple question: How to make a flower origami ? 
@faithlove1111
That's a good question to ask Dr. Google , hope this helps Origami Kusudama Flower https://youtu.be/6elb2EO_ZO0.
Origami is very creative and a great way to spend time whilst in isolation.
@amiablePeace77 , 
I would want a definitive but impossible answer to what happens after death. I have my belief but that's not fact based, unfortunately.
@MotherofCats1955
That would be an instersting thing to know for sure but also beliefs can be strong achors, I hope your's is too.
I just want to know what my next step is haha
@Goldcherry2113
Tough to know what happens in the future but I like to think "The next step is forward"?
@amiablePeace77 But what if the step I need to take is backwords?
@Goldcherry2113
Sometimes a step backwards means a step forward 
When I step back from an escalating conversation I step forward to peace of mind.
@amiablePeace77 You are a wise one.
@amiablePeace77
Why do I feel alone, while I do know many many people, yet, I myself often choose to do things by myself ... and yet, when I do that, I feel alone! Why do I trap myself in a self-pity mood?
@Kit4228
Kit, hugs,do you feel torn between your desire to spend time with others and your natural ways of life to do things, maybe as an introvert?
Why do I have to suffer for things that others did to me as a child, etc?
@Kathy1212
It must have been hard for you when growing up. As children we often cannot defend ourselves but as adults we can reach out for help and I hope you will. hugs.
