Inquisitively Challenged


The rebellious child who questions everything sits in a place beyond the one who has nothing to ask.

If the rebellious child questions, it is because it touches him, it says something to him. Perhaps it even bothers him.

But a perfectly capable human being who has no questions is stuck in his place. 
Perhaps he is a good person who does good deeds and never sins. But there is no sense of the spirit, of the meaning of life, of transcendence.

He knows of nothing higher.
