Mystery and Wonder

The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed.

Albert Einstein

Our sense of wonder is the first thing our school teachers manage to kill...
Most of us almost stop asking questions by the time we get out of college. Do we even stop to wonder about the things around us?

Frankly the media and stuff nowadays just tends to repress whatever "imagination" people have...
Dont see too many kids reading books or even bothering to go out exploring their neighborhoods...

Dont see too many adults having a good imagination and a sense of humour either...
