Technology is the overall applied science in every fiber of our daily lives, a basis which
we can not live without. When I hear of the 21st century, I see it as the era of
globalization. If you’ll look back to what the earth looked like then and now, you can
spot a huge difference. Technology paved our way for a faster and more efficient
lifestyle. Across the globe, there are over a billion individuals who carry smart gadgets in
their pockets.
And more than 60,000 people ask a Google inquiry every second of every hour of every
day. That is a staggering figure, and that is only Google. The extent to which these
technologies have evolved is quite amazing. Every day, we carry a seemingly limitless
quantity of knowledge in our pockets, and it is these gadgets that assist us in asking and
answering questions such as “how would I get there?” and “why is the sky blue?” And I
think that is really impressive.
However, it is easy to overlook the power of our own thoughts when we have a
computer in our pockets and Google provides quick answers to nearly anything. Our
minds are far more powerful than any computer or smartphone. We have the capacity
to discover solutions on our own, as well as the ability to think critically, be creative, and
be passionately curious.
Borrowing Eric Booth’s wise words, “When curiosity is alive, we are attracted to many
things; we discover many worlds.” Curiosity, I think, can be misunderstood as ‘knowing
nothing’, ‘questioning everything’, or ‘being clueless’. Curiosity will drive most of your
actions when you do not know anything.
If you were stranded next to a machine with a lot of buttons and did not know what
they all meant, you would probably explore until you figured out what they all meant.
Curiosity drives many of the activities that little toddlers perform, allowing them to gain
fundamental information about the world. For Howie Severino, his curious mind served
as a catalyst for his creative process.
He stated, “There’s nothing like walking around the city and encountering a scene or
incident that becomes the core of a story.” If he did not took the public transportation
that day, if he did not pursue his curiosity about the growing crowd below the Taft
Avenue MRT station, would he be able to find Mr.
Sergio and Habagat’s story? If he just searched online for any interesting articles to
feature, will he be able to cross paths with the dog doing stunning tricks and the old
man in search of Eddieboy?
