Questions

I think inquiry is one of the most beautiful gifts we have as human beings.  That's probably why I resonated so much with Curious George growing up

...even though on the inside I secretly hated him because he wouldn't just follow the rules.

Maybe this is the "J" side of my ENFJ coming out.  Or, perhaps this is a tension where I live and perhaps many other people live as well: In order for discovery to happen, you may have to break a few rules.

I guess no one demands that a person would have to like breaking these rules, that the consequences would always be helpful, or that the inquiry must lead to ground-breaking, news-worthy discovery.

But a life without inquiry is a self-stagnated insult.
