Do you ever look up at the sky and think about life and the universe?

I did when I was a kid. But I don’t do that very much anymore. Why do you ask?

Sometimes I feel like I’m lost in day-to-day details

Then when I look up at the sky, I see the big picture. 

I appreciate things more even the little things.


You sound like a philosopher or a poet. I felt like too when I was a kid.

Don’t you feel like that anymore?

No, I don’t. In fact, I try not to

When I think about things too deeply, I get depressed. 

It’s even a bit frightening.

Really? For me it’s just the opposite. 

Everything seems like a wonderful miracle.

Doesn’t that frighten you a bit? 

The universe is so large and we are so small.


What I realize is how little we understand. 

We just need to appreciate our lives and not get lost.

Sometimes being lost isn’t so bad. 

Do you know the expression "ignorance is bliss"?

Sure, I’ve heard it many times. "To be ignorant is to be happy".


Maybe it’s true. Maybe it’s best not to think or know too much.

Not, that’s not for me. I want to understand as much as possible. That’s why I became a scientist.

Well, I respect your choice but it’s not for me. If understanding is painful, I’d rather not understand.

He doesn't agree with her choice.

He tries not to think about things too deeply.
