Tycoon-ism: “Minds are like parachutes – they only function when open.” – Thomas Dewar
Children are always a wonder. They ask the silliest questions yet in retrospect, you realize that in their line of thinking, their questions and remarks do make sense. But if you put an adult mind into the shoes of a child as he processes each information as something new then in no time at all the adult would be inundated by all these knowledge that he is assimilating. And so again you have to admire the amazing capabilities of a child’s mind. The reason for this is that a child’s mind is free of all the baggage that adults have accumulated over the years. They don’t have the preconception and bigotry that clouds most of an adults waking moments. If there is a way for us to learn as adults, maybe it is this: that we realize that each activity should be treated as an opportunity. Even the simple act of driving must be taken as a chance to learn. Because if we keep on hanging on to our preconceptions then we might stop learning altogether.
