I love that because we live in a world now where we have more access to information than we've ever had.
We're taught, almost not taught, it's almost expected that we should know the answer to everything there is.
YouTube, the internet.
So many ways to research why things are the way they are, but it's such a closed way of thinking.
We have this quest to know what is out there, but it seems like children do want to wonder as well.
You know, they want to wonder why the sky is blue, why stars only come out at nighttime.
They wonder why grass grows in certain seasons.
And we don't give them often the opportunity to be able to wonder and to be able to think and come up with their own hypothesis.
Instead, we just throw answers at their face.
And this higher order thinking, this open-ended questioning and open-ended answers is a lost art because we are in a rush to get through so much.
At one point, towards the end of the images of my time in Window 3, I just had an overwhelming sense of being moved by looking at the moon.
But something just drew me in suddenly to the lunar landscape, and it became real.
And the truth is, the moon really is its own universe.
body in the universe it's not just a poster in the sky that goes by it is a real place and when we have that perspective and we compare it to our home of the earth it just reminds us how much we have in common everything we need the earth provides and that in and of itself is somewhat of a miracle
I wanted to start off with connecting with what Christina said that it was very moving to look out the window.
