·[Excerpt]
Question: Why do we only have one life? (8 years old / Maya)
Answer: Little one, first we have a child's life, then a teenager's life, then an adult's life, and after that, an old person's life. You could say that at 84 years old, I have lived many lives, because my life has been divided into many different periods.
Question: Do you have to give gifts if you like someone? (3 years old / Yvette)
Answer: Giving gifts isn't mandatory; it should come from the heart. Gifts that can't be found in stores are actually cheaper, yet more precious — like a smile, a loving gesture, valuing others, and any detail that can fill life with the scent of flowers.
Question: Why is there talk of the Big Bang? (6 years old / Hannah)
Answer: I don't know everything, I must admit, this is beyond the knowledge in my brain. To me, stars are just little holes in the ceiling of this dark sky. The important things are the three big bangs in life: birth, falling in love for the first time, and leaving this world.
Question: Can stones feel pain? (5 years old / Caesar)
Answer: If these stones are used for tombs, perhaps they can feel pain. Pebbles that live in groups are definitely the happiest stones, but if one of them goes missing, perhaps the surrounding stones might feel a bit sad. As for tiny grains of sand, as long as they're not trapped by cement, they are the freest.
