Stay Curious

“The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing.” -Albert Einstein

I was just thinking today about how I used to be so curious about the human mind. It was a huge driver for me. But I did reach a point where I felt like my curiosity was satiated. Not that I finally knew all the answers, but that I reached a full set of satisfying answers. When I felt like I finished, I got this aching feeling of loss, like when you finish a good book or when a concert ends that you really enjoy. They say to stay curious, though, and it’s probably because once that thirst is gone, you sort of float around looking for the next best thing. There’s plenty to question. The search never truly ends. Maybe there was more to it than simply satiating the thirst?

What do you think?

What happens when you feel like you satisfied your curiosity?

When asked what she wants to teach the world she replied, "Don't stop searching. Too many times, in my old life, I put my search aside for more 'important matters.' I didn't realize the thing I was searching for held what was most important; my soul purpose." Jayne works daily on improving her craft and at times can get down on herself, but her favorite morning mantra is "It's a new day." and that's what she strives to start with.
