Something to Ruminate Upon

Here are seven questions aimed at identifying your passions, which is an interesting corollary to your gifting:
1.What one subject can you enjoy talking about for many hours?
2.Do any of your hobbies involve working a lot with other people?
3.What specific concerns preoccupy your mind, breaking into whatever else you're thinking about?
4.What do you most enjoy doing for others?
5.Let's pretend you've reached the end of your life, and you're in heaven looking back on it. What's the one thing you want to be most happy about having done or having been?
6.What group of people have you come to care about the most? (You define the categories, whatever way you want. Go with your first instincts.) Who do you most want to help, enable, or reach?
7.Now, write down at least five of your life experiences that most gave you a sense of fulfillment and/or growth. (Don't think about them until later - just write them down for now.) If more experiences come to mind, just keep listing them until you exhaust yourself. You'll sort them out later.
