Today is the 11th day of Valentine's month of February, and I wanted to share my love of curiosity, travel, and research. Of course, picking up the camera has enhanced my curiosity and made me even more aware of my surroundings. Art, too, has enabled me to share my feelings more deeply than by word, which is not one of my strengths

If by Rudyard Kipling
To learn while still a child
What this life is meant to be.
To know it goes beyond myself,
It’s so much more than me.
To overcome the tragedies,
To survive the hardest times.
To face those moments filled with pain,
And still, manage to be kind.
To fight for those who can’t themselves,
To always share my light.
With those who wander in the dark,
To love with all my might.
To still stand up with courage,
Though standing on my own.
To still get up and face each day,
Even when I feel alone.
To try to understand the ones
That no one cares to know.
And make them feel some value.
When the world has let them go.
To be an anchor, strong and true,
That person loyal to the end.
To be a constant source of hope
To my family and my friends.
To live a life of decency,
To share my heart and soul.
To always say I’m sorry
When I’ve harmed both friend and foe.
To be proud of whom I’ve tried to be,
And this life I chose to live.
To make the most of every day
By giving all I have to give.
To me, that’s what this life should be,
To me, that’s what it’s for.
To take what God has given me
And make it so much more
To live a life that matters,
To be someone of great worth.
To love and be loved in return
And make my mark on Earth..
Research is formalized curiosity. It is poking and prying with a purpose.
Zora Neale Hurston
Research is what I'm doing when I don't know what I'm doing.
Wernher von Braun
Research means that you don’t know, but are willing to find out.
Charles F. Kettering
Research is something that everyone can do, and everyone ought to do. It is simply collecting information and thinking systematically about it.
Raewyn Connell
Bad news sells papers. It also sells market research.
Byron Sharp
A person susceptible to ‘wanderlust’ is not so much addicted to movement as committed to transformation.
Pico Iyer
The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.
Sainte Augustine
The traveler sees what he sees, the tourist sees what he comes to see.”
Gilbert K Chesterton
Traveling solo does not always mean you’re alone. Most often, you meet marvelous people along the way and make connections that last a lifetime.
Jacqueline Boone
An understanding of the natural world and what’s in it is a source of not only a great curiosity but great fulfilment.

Oh, the places you will go.

And I think to myself, what a wonderful world.
