The life and learning of a baby begin with curiosity. A brain that is constantly curious, starting with lips and then hands and eyes, undergoes a very complex development in 5-6 years that will amaze you. However, as age progresses, the instinct to be curious may gradually decrease. In rare individuals, this feeling is so powerful that they can become a genius and an inventor.
In fact, doing science is also a kind of art that comes with curiosity. The discovery of new things results in results that cannot be measured materially, both as excitement and motivation. At the heart of this lies curiosity.
It is not possible to know everything about everything. However, if you are curious, you can have a certain level of awareness about a subject, even if not at an expert level. Of course, it is important not to try to use your knowledge or thoughts against a competent expert...
What matters is to have a certain level of awareness about events and issues around you. A society consisting entirely of passive people who are not interested in any subject loses half of its power. Dynamism decreases, development slows down.
Directing your curiosity towards positive aspects, increasing your personal capacity is both enjoyable and leads to continuity. The curiosity of learning is the greatest driving force for individual development. As people learn, they want to learn more, their motivation and interpretation capacity increases, providing broader thinking and understanding. They enjoy life more and become more giving to society, and in the long run, individual development reflects on societal development.
Don't give up on curiosity, direct your curiosity towards positive topics without forgetting to be humble and measured. Instill this feature in your children. A curious child will always make more careful decisions with stronger and more inclusive feelings, and will contribute, even if only a drop, to the development of humanity.
