Curiosity


I find it curious how something can be so important to one group of my friends that it is eagerly anticipated, intensely received and there are even television and radio interviews and programs concerning it; while another group has never even heard about it, has no clue what it is, and further more, does not care.

The second group of people does have an interest in their own things and while I may not find these things up my alley, I do know about them and often find myself curious. I wish they had a reciprocal interest in things they were not particularly into.

It makes me think that curiosity is one of those traits that truly divides different types of people.  Some of us find not knowing a wonderful call to adventure.  Others find it incomprehensible and even frightening.

As Alice said, or really Lewis Carroll, that is curiouser and curiouser.
