When you are younger…

… everything is easy.

You play around as you discover the nuances of life.

As you grow older you slowly start to lose it. Everything becomes overly serious.

In the light of recent events I’m quoting Steve Jobs’s closing words from his 2005 Stanford commencement address, where he recalled the final issue of The Whole Earth Catalog: “Stay hungry. Stay foolish.”

How do we keep the spirit of exploration when life becomes serious?
