The value of spontaneous crazy experiences

"I remember in Tokyo, our car stopped unexpectedly. I found right there no building, but a small area of 'weeds', excitingly different from those in Norway. Consequently, I had a splendid time for a whole hour inspecting the strange weeds. Conclusion: teach children to value spontaneous crazy experiences - crazy because usually one would say, 'There is nothing there'". (Arne Næss, Canadian Journal of Environmental Education 5, 2000, pg 54).
