I started writing down one question every morning, just for fun. One day I asked, 'Why do we dream?' and ended up reading a fascinating article during my lunch break. It opened a whole rabbit hole of psychology and sleep. Since then, I’ve explored topics I never would have searched for. It keeps my brain alive and gives my curiosity room to roam.
