Is it something we are born with? Is it something we can acquire?

I have memories of being very young and going to the beach with my family. We lived walking distance to Coney Island in Brooklyn and went there often. We must have returned to roughly the same location because I recall seeing, each time, a white building further on down the beach. It piqued my curiosity. What was it like down there?

Years later, the building still stands. and I have walked down to it many times. It is a souvenir of a yearning, a curiosity, to know what lies beyond.

The unknown continues to entice me. And the unknown is everywhere.
