What topics do you like to discuss?
Sometimes I love to play devil’s advocate when discussing a particular subject. Point counterpoint. If you like something I take the other viewpoint. It’s fun and engaging. It also expands the mind because we are not locked into our preconceived notions.
I don’t watch news that only supports my viewpoint. This way I’m well-versed in the topic.
With family we discuss history. Do you remember this or that? That happens with long time friends as well.
With everyone I discuss how we travel luxuriously on a budget. That’s always a subject with lots of questions for me.
Politics not so much unless it’s with people who don’t tear their hair out or attack when a viewpoint other than their own is expressed. I’m not crazy about radicalization on any side.
Spirituality and healing are great topics. That’s usually a calm insightful topic unless it heads in the direction of religion which is fraught with tension if the person is too rigid in his thinking.
But above all discussing anything is great fun if it’s filled with humor and compassion.
