Being a Critical Thinker…

Recently I took my 18mo. old granddaughter with me shopping.  We were in a large dept. store and while riding the escalator I noticed Aleina watching the steps disappear under the floor.  After we got off she turned around and bent over by the steps, watching with a child like curiosity.  Then, after riding the escalator a few more times, and watching the other people get on and off, she was satisfied as to how they worked.

I would like to say, I hope you never lose your curosity, that you always ask the what, where, when, how, and why questions.  But, you are probably like the majority of others that blindly follow along with the masses….’The blind leading the blind’, until you both fall in the ditch.  Could that be the reason you are in the shape you are in, physically, financially, mentally…..

Just because you saw it on the evening news, do you believe it?  Mass media tries to control and shape your beliefs and destiny.  The educational system tries to press your child into their mold.  Organized religion wants you to believe the way they believe.  But, if you learn to ask the right questions, get good solid answers, and put forth the energy to apply what you have learned,  you can be your own person.  Learn to be a Critical Thinker….and thats the truth.
