Q is for quest. My husband believes that when I was first born, my cry must be saying “Why”. I have an insatiable quest for learning. It is my motivator and something that keeps me going.
My quest for knowledge makes me a voracious reader. Books are a way to travel the world without leaving your seat. Through my reading, I have learnt more about the world’s cultures, become more open to the differences in people and learnt some key skills like empathy and compassion.
Since I have discovered TED talks and Goalcast, it has added another place where I can spend hours listening to some wonderful stories and expanding my horizons.
In my quest and desire to learn, I have certainly better myself as an individual. And that has always been my only goal – to be a better person and being than the previous day.
Knowledge is vast like ocean, it is an inexhaustible quest!
