Curiosity

[Starstruck Rainbow]

Is curiosity a gift or a curse in your eyes?


In mine... it's both. It's great because you find out all this weird stuff that makes you look like a total genius. On the other hand... it gets you into trouble.

Curiosity in a learning sense is not a bad thing at all, I am very curious of new things to learn. Being too curious with people is not good in my eyes, because it makes you interest for stuff in which you really shouldn't stick your nose.  

[Egrus Dam]

I say both, but to me it's okay because I like to pester people even if I know I'll get into trouble! xd
Obviously, that's when the topic is light-hearted... I'll ask about serious stuff only if I'm sure to not hurt the person in question sweatdrop

Curiosity killed the cat.
Satisfaction brought him back.

Being the curious person that I am, have often found myself getting into trouble because of my curiosity.. However, it has answered a lot of questions I might have been better off not knowing the answers to.

But.. if you think of all of the great inventors.. had they not have been curious we wouldn't have electricity or some of the other things we take so much for granted.

So yeah.. being curious has it's place. It's knowing when to be and when not to be.. That is the question. smile

I think it is both a curse and gift. Being curious enables you to learn new things, and be overall, more intelligent. But at the same time, when you get too curious, you may get injured mentally or physically. You just have to decide for yourselft.

I would it's both a gift and a curse. It's a gift in that, without it, you will never learn or grow as a person. At the same time, it's a curse because it can lead you into dangerous situations or it may lead to stick your nose where it doesn't belong.

I think it's difficult...Curiosity is good and bad...so...both^^  

[Twisting_Shadows18]

it's hard to say where the line is, to tell where curiosity goes from being a gift to being a curse. sure it can help us with things, but it can also get us into situations that would be better if we had left well alone. so yes it is good, but it's also a bad thing.  

[Esme Eames]

It can be both. It can help you learn and it can hinder the process because you get distracted when you find something need to investigate. It can get you into trouble.  

[Ms Jenna_ Lee]

i think its both too cause it goes with the old saying "curiouity killed the cat" too much curiouity can get us into alot of trouble but on the other hand it can lead into a whole new experiences which can either be good or bad depending on the situation..but its natural to have some curiousity cause all humans are curious at some point in their lives  

[PelicanBlack]

Depending on the situation, it could help you figure things out, or you could get in trouble for being nosy.. Either way, curiosity is curiosity and it will always be there. *shrug*

Curiosity is like an addiction, you may be addicted to learn things and gain knowledge from it. And that's a gift. On the other hand, it may be a curse, because curiosity may lead to a neurological problem of some sort. Like being too curious about stuffs that you shouldn't be meddling with, and you'll get yourself and other people in troubles often. XD

i would have to say both too, because a lot of the time you do find out stuff you wouldnt have known but not all the time that stuff is good.  

[the greatest wizard]

In my thoughts my curiosity can and almost got me killed in some occasions.So i call it a gift and a curse at the same time.It's a gift for me because if i had no curiosity i'd never have met the one i fell in love with...  

[Yreduasp]

I, as so many others before, believe that it is both a gift and a curse as are most non material things.

The gift part is because you can find out the most interesting things, it stops you from getting bored too often and it can be a motivator.

The curse part because not all knowledge brings happiness, can lead to trouble and harm.
