Interested in Interesting Interest

Lately, I have been very fortunate to experience some very positive emotions.

Talent and skill is secondary, but the interest and desire to learn is primary.

It's very interesting, and also uplifting, to see a friend's eyes sparkle when they enter a new place. Bearing the curiousity of the child, he will go around and soak in all the new stuff that he can see in his eyes.

Interest in a certain topic/project/subject really changes one's behaviour. You will automatically become interested, take initiative and be willing to discuss and try out new ideas/methods. There is no need for external impetus, just solely relying on the fire of desire burning within the mind is sufficient to keep one going. Negative thoughts become less commonplace, and failure only serve to fuel more desire to make things work.

It is a really refreshing thing to see, and pleasant watching someone so interested in something.

And surprisingly, the two friends I am talking about have names that start with the same letter.
