Questions are like land

..and answers are buildings and other constructions on them.

By nature, everyone starts life accumulating questions. But they grow up in a place, a land of questioning put forth by their elders, who resolved or dispelled their questions with constructions. And so their birth place fixes their options, narrows their ability to find resolution.

Some people stray to other lands to construct answers to their idiosyncratic questions, unsatisfied with or otherwise rejecting of the lands they grew up in. More often though, they learn about the questions of their land, of their elders, or their culture, and live within the heightened constructions therein. In doing so, they inevitably dismiss the urgency of their own questions, they find accommodation beneath existing constructions.

And then sometimes, a person will learn to climb the highest constructions, which requires great understanding of the land of questioning on which it was built. Depending on this person's idiosyncratic tenacity, they most likely will have forgotten their own questioning, like most below, and continue the constructions of the elders. But if particularly tenacious, they may remember their original questions, and use their high vantage point to overlook and oversee the possibilities for new ambitious constructions, elsewhere.
