"Everything changes, just some things faster than others"
When you were like.... 5 and you stared into the starry sky, didn't it hold such.... wonder? A place thought unattainable and then dream about. And then, compare that to now. True, it may still hold a capture over you. But it's not the same is it? You know what is out there. You know how it would look, and in many cases, what it's made of. By this, knowledge is a double-sided blade right? To know something that would make life a little less exciting. "Oh! there are tiny little lights in the sky!" to "Those are made up of hydrogen and helium in a constant..." In this case I guess knowing something makes it more... attainable, but also less amusing. I'm not saying knowledge is bad, but isn't it best to let a child dream about what lies beyond, rather than squashing their dreams before they can come into fruition? I know one thing. When I was young, I had my brother and parents describe what everything was, and although I found it interesting, I have to ask, what would I be like had I actually been able to get to that stage?
