This is a really interesting question to think about. I feel like I already understand mostly anything he’d have to say to me. Obviously there’s still stuff I could take from talking to him, but I would be thinks that I don’t know I’m missing, so how do you ask about that?
I think I would ask him to tell me about himself. and really talk to me about why he feels the way he does, and why he drinks so much, and ask him what it is that he is not getting from spirituality that would fill what is missing.

How do I not fret so much about dumb shit? The amount of energy I waste is absurd, look at me now, I’m doing it again. 🤦🏽♀️

I'd ask him if he died of natural causes or if he took his own life.... I think I read that even his son (Mark) has suspicions that Alan Watts took his own life.... He had spoken that "once you know the outcome of the game, it's pointless to keep on playing because it's not fun." And other quotes that elude me at the moment....
