NAME:
Daniela is just over four years old and asks a lot – she always asks. And sometimes she answers too.
I will try to reproduce Daniela's questions, considerations and answers.
– Thinking? - She said to her godmother who is a university student. – What is thinking? Why do you think? But why don't you think? - break.
– Why is it necessary to think? Why does Moacir Franco sing in the song like this: “no, I can't stop, if I stop I think, if I think I cry…”
“The godmother took Daniela to the Faculty where she was studying, showed her the statue of “The Thinker” and told her.
– Daniela, that one is “O Pensador”.
The girl looked closely and said nothing. Much later she said:
– Thinker … think-a-pain? So why do we say think-a-pain? Enjoyed it all!
After some time, the godmother decided to ask questions, hoping to receive answers:
– Daniela, what is thinking?
– Thinking is like that man from your school.
The godmother insisted:
– What is thinking?
– Well, then, thinking is closing your eyes.
For the last time the godmother insisted:
– Daniela, what is thinking?
– Well, I said very categorically, thinking is putting a lot of things in your head, making a mystery and then giving the surprise.
