Thoughts about the importance of questioning things

When we see a person as someone "unique" we are precisely referring to the personality, because it is the actions, criteria and opinions that could differentiate an individual from others. When we are born we are like a big blank computer, which must be programmed and loaded with information that we will use whenever we need it with the sole purpose of living, doing what we like the most and what we know best. The difference is that at the beginning that information that enters our brain is decided by our parents, school, TV shows, and in short, other factors that have the power to influence our innocence. In this world we have two main sources of information which are our own experiences and the experiences of others. Books, the internet, history, the TV and a good conversation (among others) represent the means that allow us to receive information about the experiences of others, that transfer of knowledge that gives us the opportunity to evolve. Thanks to the experiences of others, we can learn and benefit from their effort, their mistakes and successes, which allows us to gain time and put our focus and energy on moving forward, solving problems that are above those they have already solved. The best way to improve that knowledge is to always question things. Questioning is the means through which we choose what information comes in and what information comes out, what information remains and what information to erase. While it is true that much of the information we unconsciously learn can be useful and that even when researching subjects it is inevitable to consult sources from the experiences of others, we will always end up making the final choice on what to believe and what not to believe, in other words, we are always the ones who can eliminate, reorganize and process our own information. This research process derived from a simple but forceful “why” coming from us, will be the door that we will open to begin to live our own experiences. We should not accept everything as true until we prove it to ourselves because we never know when can be deceived, we should instead make our own choices about the content with which we will feed that organ so important for our subsistence, our brain.
