喜樂美語

Picture walking into a place you do not know yet, with no fixed route: you go down this street, then that one, just to see what is there. Explore always starts from not-knowing and moves outward — and the thing you walk around in can be a city, an idea, or a surface under your fingers.

可以想成：走進一個你還不熟的地方，手上沒有固定路線——先走這條街，再拐去那一條，就是想看看那裡有什麼。explore 的起點永遠是「還不知道」，動作是往外走走看。而你走進去的那個空間，可以是一座城市，可以是一個想法，也可以是指尖下的一片表面。
