<p>^ simply put, that’s my question. </p>
<p>I’ve grown up in a household where my parents have always told me to “question everything and everyone.” In all honesty, it gets to be a bother, so I just take things as they are sometimes.</p>
<p>What about you? Do you take things as they are, or do you have the tendency to question and doubt a lot of things first?</p>
<p>I tend to take things as they are. </p>
<p>And I would hate it if I were to talk to someone who questions everything and everyone and asks me “why?” if I told them things about me, like my interests. I don’t want to questioned for simply liking what I like. D:</p>
<p>There’s a moderation point. Personally, I find it irritating how lax people are in regards to questions. We are much too passive of a society and I think it is royally biting us in the butt. That being said, it gets tiring to not take things as they come sometimes. </p>
<p>My parents also taught me to question everything. My mom comes from a Gypsy family and Gypsies tend to be distrustful of everything and everyone (ok, they do have a legitimate reason to be…) but she developed a healthy level of distrust. My father tends to be a bit distrustful and question things to the point of near paranoia. I am someone who will question a lot of things (which is partially why I’m growing to dislike my major- anthropology) and I tend to have a very open mind. I am a naturally very curious person and it will bug me if I don’t know the answer to something- even something trivial. Phones with internet have been a wonderful addition to my life :).</p>
