Overview

Have you ever seen an old photo of a deceased relative, perhaps a great-grandfather, and wondered what he was really like? Maybe the photo shows a twinkle in his eye or other expression suggesting he would have much to tell you, if only he could. What would his views be, both on life's timeless issues like religion, liberty, and love and on the most widely discussed, popular topics of his day? Unfortunately, for most people, that information is forever lost. Now look toward the future. Would you like to leave more for your descendants? Do you want to be able to tell them what you believe, offer them advice, and describe aspects of your thinking, long after you are gone? If so, then you will find that 20 Questions is an extremely helpful tool. Its 8 x 10 workbook format asks 20 provocative questions in large print on a wide range of topics and provides ample space for your handwritten thoughts. Imagine the future value of this instant heirloom to loved ones; your descendants will know you much more than just through a photograph. Sometimes a picture is not worth a thousand words. So what makes 20 Questions different from the many remembrance books on the market? The others mainly attempt to record a history of personal facts or events, with questions such as What are your favorite foods? or What was the name of your first boyfriend or girlfriend? Very different from those, 20 Questions asks 20 provocative questions which are designed to get at attitudes, values, ethics, and character. Eleanor Roosevelt once said, Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people. 20 Questions aspires to provide a thought snapshot that is more about ideas and thinking than about events and people. Some of the topics covered in 20 Questions are: Love; Value of Human Life; Your Advice on Life, Marriage and Parenting; Religious Beliefs; Political Views; Gun Control; Abortion; Race; and Your Thoughts about America's Future.
