I’ve finally come to realize,
that it is my nature to question.

Not necessarily doubt all;
but to constantly seek for the new.

To limit myself – to accept nothing
new – goes against that which I am.

I’ve also realized that I may never
receive all the answers in this lifetime.

But for me, to quit asking and seeking,
means to quit living.

And for that -
I am not ready.
