However, a seed is unable to germinate and develop on its own, in isolation. The conditions must be correct. The right soil with the right nutrients, adequate amounts of sunlight, moisture and warmth are all necessary for the process to take place. Similar conditions are required in humans for the tree of knowledge to grow and hopefully, one day, bear the fruits of intelligence. The requirement for curiosity to emerge in the first place is willingness to admit not knowing. The second requirement is the eagerness or need to know. Smash these 2 hard truths together like rocks, and you get the spark of curiosity, which, under the right conditions, can start a fiery passion. I guess this is just another way of saying: Curiosity creates luminosity /// Wangi Falls Loop, Northern Territory, Australia 24.10.2023 #Australia #nature #philosophy
