Learning

  A child asks a question.

Not to a parent.

Not to a teacher.

Not to a librarian.

To the air.

"How many moons does Saturn have?"

The answer arrives almost immediately.

A voice responds from a small speaker on a bedroom shelf.

No one pauses.

No one finds this remarkable.

The child certainly doesn't.

Why would they?

This is simply how the world works.

Every generation inherits an environment that feels natural.
