Wonder

A scientist battles with a choice between selfishness and selflessness.

If you learn everything in the world, what happens to your ability to feel?

In philosophy, wonder is the start of everything. Wonder is the curiosity to seek more; it is the desire to understand things on a deeper level. So, what happens when a human's innate curiosity no longer exists?

A scientist has finally found the theory of everything—not just the physicality of things but the whole meaning of our existence, consciousness, time, and emotion. He has discovered it all, so why does he feel nothing? A moment of divine clarity—comes with complete silence.

Now that he knows everything, what is his use? Telling everyone else? No, he couldn't, because then everyone would feel this way. No one should feel empty after gaining the knowledge of every aspect of life. So, what does he do now that he is as powerful as God himself?

No more wonder, no more mystery, no more feeling. Was his selfish desire to know all, the one reason for his downfall? There is no longer a reason
for his existence—so will he yet again be selfish and bring everyone down with him, or will he be selfless and give up the ability he has worked so hard to obtain.
