Have you ever looked at your fingers?

The human being is amazing.  From birth they are trying to learn about the world around them. 

If you ever studied a baby you can see them learning.  Their hand fascinates them.  At first it is a fist.  Then one day they realize that fist can spread out into individual fingers.  If you are lucky enough to have children you may take the journey of self discovery with them. 

You watch that little baby grow.  They realize they can run and jump.  Then they realize that the world is much larger than the four walls of their home.  You watch them explore that world.  You fear for their safety but you realize it is a journey you cannot stop.

The great thing about humans is that we bounce back.  Like the song says "I get knocked down but I get up again."
