TODAY I ASKED A QUESTION

My big qustion is why do people always have the need to be superior to at least someone or something? When we were children we loved asking questions we were always curious about everything. Now that we have grown up we avoid asking questions. In Gordon Mackenzie's book, Orbiting the Giant Hairball, he explains how he observed a class full of 1st graders and when asked a question all of them sprung out of their chairs excitedly. He also explained that as he asked the same question to each grade going up less and less students would rais their hands.
