"Questioning and Curiosity"


"The important thing is not to stop
questioning. Curiosity has its own
reason for existing. One cannot help
but be in awe when he contemplates
the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the
marvelous structure of reality... Never
lose a holy curiosity."
Albert Einstein

Curiosity and questioning caused
Albert Einstein to be able to make
the discoveries he did. He didn't
allow the reasoning of the day to
dictate to him what life is all about.

I'm grateful for all of the people who
have gone before us with their
questions and curiosity, and their
willingness to step way beyond "but
this is the way we've always done
things."

Jesus was an example of this as he
told people about "the Father". In his
time people only knew about an
angry, vengeful God.

Ghandi and Martin Luther King, Jr
wanted freedom, and were both
willing to gain that freedom by ways
of non-violence.

As we open ourselves to curiosity
and questions we are able to find new
ways of believing and acting than we
have in the past.

Today I challenge you to open up to
curiosity and to question at least one
thing in your life.

Let Us Pray:
Living, Loving Presence, we open
ourselves to You, and to this life You
have given us. We desire to make a
difference on our planet by not just
accepting the status quo. We are
grateful for Your guidance. Amen.

The same Power that resided in Jesus,
Ghandi, Martin Luther King, Jr, and
Einstein is in us. We, too, can make
a difference.

Light and Love,
Sandy
