Thought of the D-d-d-day

Challenging yourself and your beliefs is the most uncomfortable thing in the world, but most of the time that discomfort comes from a place inside you that knows the idea which you are challenging is invalid. Kids are known for asking "why? why? why?" and it can get annoying, so eventually, either through responses which shut them down, or just being ignored, the ceaseless "why?"s eventually cease. But I wish kids weren't discouraged from asking "why?" rather, the question should be cultivated, and given direction. It's an important tool, especially in a society where taking things for granted is too easy (by design), and too often are we disarmed at a young age.
