Only children who are not submitted to regularity and see things in the most ingenue way can discover the star inside an apple. Our curiosity diminishes as our experience accumulates. We are taught to cut an apple in a certain way, to behave in a certain way and to think in a certain way. I have long forgotten that we can cut an apple horizontally and only by doing this, we can discover the star inside it. It seems that I have never seen this star before.
Jesus once told his disciples that only children can enter the Kingdom of God. Whoever cannot adapt the new spectacles in seeing the world cannot see the treasure in heaven. I couldn't help but wonder, if the Kingdom of God is only special in children's eyes, does it mean that it is just an ordinary place for the rest of us? Maybe we need to change our point of view from this very moment so that we can still discover new things in the Kingdom of God and can value it in a different way.
