Just an observation on babies. Their ability to learn and adapt is really amazing. One week, they may just be sitting down, looking you in the eyes and may look like he does know what to do. The next week, they surprise you by doing something out of the ordinary; which you really do not expect to happen.
They are like sponges, absorbing every visual and auditory details that the world have bombarded them with. I think in certain ways, they have been trying to sense-make what the world is all the about, and along the way managed to figure it all out one thing at a time.
It makes me wonder whether we should return to a state of being babies. We were definitely curious and inquisitive then, and open to new ideas. Now, as adults, we tend to be more closed minded and have certain bianess in our perceptions. Perhaps, we have already molded and shaped by our influences in life.
As a fellow student said to me, we are constantly being influenced by various sources which can ultimately shape our beliefs and eventually become the person we are. Sounds like we do not have independent thinking at all yeah... So therefore, we should always try to develop critical thinking skills or logic reasoning with an eye on human emotions (paradox ah?).
What I meant is that cool reasoning of a given situation should be guided by keen observation of the human emotions relayed by the actors of the situation. This should lead us to a more effective and successful resolution of any problem or issue.
