IT IS CURIOSITY, IT IS THE PATH
After thinking a little about love, this week I want to point out about this virtue, a force without which we all would not be, to start with, here: curiosity.
Wishing to learn helps transform us, makes us learners in life and, therefore, it is a condition for the luck and happiness that we can get if we face opportunities. The entrepreneur, father and mother, the sage, the artist walk through necessary paths of curiosity to discover and nurture their talents.
Plato said “Necessity is the Mother of Invention”, and truth is that this search for what we need contains one of the ingredients of creativity: being curious. If we remember the words by Viktor Frankl, who has a reason why, will find a way how: curiosity comes along with passion.
Thus, a Good life is a matter of curious people, as many other curious ones have pointed through History. Here you are a decalogue of aphorisms that have helped me to reflect on this ability to see the world through the eyes of a child.
I wish you a happy week,
Álex
