i don't know much...


mama, penguin minumnya air laut atau air tawar?
kalo jentik nyamuk jadi kepompong dulu ga sebelum jadi nyamuk?
penggesek biola bahasa inggrisnya apa?

if we ever notice, much of the question from little mouths are not quite readily answerable for us adults... parents... grown-ups... teachers... even professors
sometimes we just don't care, or consider things too trivial, or too lazy to search for the answer...
on the other side, isn't it a challange to the limitation of our decayed memories, our ignorance, or our prudence?
let the children seek the truth and let's find enjoyment in accompanying that, rather than expect them to forget that we don't know and don't even care to help them know...

softly clinging on my ears part of linda ronstadt's lyrics (feat. aaron neville) "i don't know much... but i know i love you..." may god bless you with a neverending curiosity and endless eagerness to learn for life.
