Description

Time flies. For example, I can't believe my baby sister just turned 5. She's starting to ask those hard-to- answer "why" questions like "Why is the sky blue?"

After a series of these questions, I experienced an "ah-ha" moment when I recognized her constant curiosity — and my lack of it.

In today's information-cluttered world, I think we coast too much. We need to ask more questions, seek more answers and initiate more change — starting in our own lives.

From the slums of Africa to Memorial Park In Bellingham, these Klipsun articles are stories of peo­ple living on a learning curve.

Check out "Roughing It" to see why a Western student chose to live on Sehome Hill. I also recom­mend reading about one mother's greatest loss in "More Than a Number," and another mother's saving grace in "Andrew's Will."

My hope is that one of these stories inspires you to create a change in your life. Be the curious 5-year- old you once were, and, at any moment, be willing to sacrifice what you are for what you could become.
