When Did We Stop Asking Why?

As kids, we dreamed of reshaping the world, our hearts filled with questions and defiance. But somewhere along the way, we grew older, quieter. Our minds tangled in the endless loop of narratives spoon-fed to us. Now, when I ask, “Why do you believe this?” or “Where’s the evidence?” I’m met with blank stares or silence, as if truth itself is a glitch in the system.

How did we sink this low, trading curiosity for comfort, skepticism for obedience? It’s not too late to dig deeper, to demand proof, to reclaim the fire we once had. Ask yourself: when did we stop asking why?
