Let’s hear a tale about the SENSE OF CURIOSITY AND CREATIVITY together.
On a warm summer at a beautiful beach, a little boy on his knees scoops and packs the sand with plastic shovels into a bucket. He upends the bucket on the surface and lifts it. And, to the delight of the little architect, a castle tower is created. He works all afternoon spooning out the moat, packing the walls, and building sentries with bottle tops and bridges with Popsicle sticks. Finally, with his hours of hard work on the beach, a sandcastle will be made.

In a big city with busy streets and rumbling traffic, a man works in an office. He shuffles papers into stacks, delegates assignments, cradles the phone on his shoulder, and punches the keyboard with his fingers. He juggles with numbers, contracts get signed, and much to the delight of the man, a profit is made. All his life, he will work. He was formulating plans and forecasting the future. His annuities will be sentries, and Capital gains will be bridged. An empire will be built.

The two builders of the two castles have very much in common. They both shape granules into grandeur. They both make something beautiful out of nothing. They both are very diligent and determined to build their world. And for both, the tide will rise, and the end will come. Yet, that is where the similarities cease. The little boy sees the end of his castle while the man ignores it. As the dusk approaches and the waves near, the child jumps to his feet and begins to clap as the waves wash away his masterpiece. There is no sorrow. No fear. No regret. He is not surprised; he knew this would happen. He smiles, picks up his tools and takes his father’s hand, and goes home.

The man in his sophisticated office is not very wise like the child. As the wave of years collapses on his empire, he is terrified. He hovers over the sandy monument to protect it. He tries to block the waves with the walls he made. He snarls at the incoming tide. “It’s my castle,” he defies. The ocean need not respond. Both know to whom the sand belongs.
Go ahead and build your dreams, but build with a child’s heart. When the sun sets and the tides take – applaud. Salute the process of life and go home with a smile.
The value of the story: This story shows a reminder to approach our work with a sense of curiosity, creativity, and wonder, and to not be afraid to experiment and try out new ideas. The story tells of a man who was tasked with building a house, and who approached the task with a sense of fear and worry, feeling like he didn’t have the skills or experience to do it right. However, he eventually realized that approaching the task with a child-like curiosity and a willingness to experiment and learn from his mistakes could help him build a house that was both practical and beautiful. The story is a reminder of the power of curiosity, creativity, and a willingness to try new things, even in the face of uncertainty and fear, and that experimenting and practicing can help us build not only houses but also more meaningful and fulfilling lives.
