When we first achieve consciousness, most thinking people quickly realize that we are faced with a tremendous conundrum. On the one hand, we grasp that it is our birthright, our natural state, to be free to choose our own path in life; and yet, on the other hand, we understand that that liberty, that emancipation is a distant and perhaps unachievable goal. Everyone needs to have an income to live. The only question is at what price? We need, I believe, a traumatic event to trigger a response and set us in a certain direction.
Fundamentally, critical thinking is the handmaiden of personal freedom. Our world is overflowing with excessive amounts of data. Critical thinking skills allow an individual to see the world with the clarity and alacrity necessary to lead that exciting and dynamic life we so often hear about. It is analogous to a breath of fresh air on a windswept beach. Its power energizes us and cleanses our mind as we explore the shore– and we feel alive! In the same way, for the person, intellectual lucidity is necessary to function successfully in an increasingly complex society. To access this portal we must simply nurture two key elements: doubt and curiosity- the doubt to always question what we hear, see or read and the curiosity to seek the truth.
