Human beings have myriad range of characteristics and attributes. Some
are innate, some are formed through experiences and some are developed
through wisdom and insight. One of the most fundamental of these human
features is that of curiosity. It is the curious nature of man that has
led him to wonder, ponder and then learn. Curiosity is the organic
building block of knowledge structure and is the key which has opened
new vistas of thought and objective disciplines.
It is curiosity in man’s nature which drives him to understand different phenomena in life. The curiosity about one’s self and the environment leads a person to investigate and with the help of his findings draw adequate inferences. It guides him to attain his desires and goals in life, to create a vision and to dream. It is that quintessential quality in man that makes him superior to other creations in terms of sociability, morality and intellectuality. This is something which enables him to build communities and develop societies.

This curious nature of man has made him reflect upon higher purposes and discover deeper meanings in things, going beyond what they apparently seem to be. This higher search for purpose compels him to find meaning of his existence and the existence of things in the universe.
We humans have a deeply curious nature, and more often than not it is
about the minor tittle-tattle in our lives. Our curiosity has us doing
utterly unproductive things like reading news about people we will never
meet, learning topics we will never have use for, or exploring places
we will never come back to. We just love to know the answers to things,
even if there's no obvious benefit.
From the perspective of evolution this appears to be something of a mystery. We associate evolution with ‘survival-of-the-fittest’ traits that support the essentials of day-to-day survival and reproduction. So why did we evolve to waste so much time? Shouldn't evolution have selected for a species which was – you know – a bit more focussed?
