"What would happen if the Earth really came to an end? How can I protect my daughter in order for her to suffer the least amount possible throughout her life? What if there was an active shooter on campus where my daughter attends school?" These are only a sample of questions I constantly ask myself. I have a tendency to imagine an array of worst case scenarios and try to find a solution.
I have always been very fearful of the unknown, but my parents have consistently bestowed upon me bravery, independence, and curiosity. Curiosity has grown with me the most throughout my childhood, adolescence, and now adulthood. Allowing myself to ask questions, regardless of how dumb they may sound, has opened many doors for me, and has prepared me for the unknown.
I really enjoyed reading this. Being a mother myself I find that I ask myself those questions sometimes as well. I enjoyed reading how you as well think about yourself as a curious person and who enjoys that about yourself.
