I always think to myself that I have to try something before I judge it. I'll do things that aren't even "me" to get a perspective of things, for example I have always had a negative view of drugs and mind altering substances but I wanted to try them just to see what all these other people were feeling. I do a lot of bad stuff just to get the perspective of another person.

Yes. I do this with books, movies, music, food and stuff like that. I mean, how do you know if you like or don't like something when you haven't tried it?
And don't you know that drugs are bad, mkay? I like to be in control of my own behaviour. Ibetter notdon't need to experiment with drugs to find out that Ilike themwon't like them.

Well not necessarily just other people's views but just also to know for yourself. I want to know. Curiousity.

No, because I can look at others and learn from their mistakes. Some things are not worth the risks either. I have moral boundaries as well.
Often a star was waiting for you to notice it. A wave rolled toward you out of the distant past, or as you walked under an open window, a violin yielded itself to your hearing. All this was mission. But could you accomplish it? (Rilke)

Curiousity is one of the driving forces of my life. While I value my inquisitive nature quite highly, it has led me into some morally dubious situations in the past. I'm generally quite a cautious person, but sometimes I just throw caution to the wind and leap into something wholeheartedly.

I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems.

Yes, I do this as well. I will try almost anything once.
