Everyone's heard the phrase "Curiosity killed the cat." But I'd like to introduce a new phrase: "Curiosity kills the flat." In other words, curiosity is what draws away from the mundane, boring things in life and leads us to new discoveries. Now I'm not saying that there isn't a place for tedium in this world. Many of the duties we must perform on a daily basis for our own health and well-being can be rather dull, but vital. For instance, I find the task of brushing my teeth to be unexciting, but I do it anyway to maintain my oral health.
What I'm talking about is the way in which curiosity brings us out of the ruts we so often travel, and leads us towards new and exciting things. Those of us who have cared for young children know what I mean. Children have such a beautiful way of asking questions and submitting themselves to the essence of their curiosity. I often watch a family friend's little girl while they run some errands. I am always amused by her strong desire to learn things. She asks constantly, "What's that?" or "Why?", questions that sometimes puzzle me as I try to come up with a reasonable answer, all because of her matter of perspective.
Today I invite you, too, to be curious and long to discover. Take a break from the tedium of everyday life and come across new and exciting things. Learn and grow, and see the world from a different perspective. Curiosity is meant to lead you to something truly amazing.
