A few days ago, Benji asked me why people aren't ever upside down. I asked him if he meant, why don't people walk on their hands sometimes? and he said no. So I asked him if he meant, why doesn't it feel like we're hanging upside down sometimes, given that planet Earth, the sphere we live on, is constantly rotating? It turns out that was what he was asking. We had a great discussion about why this is so and about points of view.
I love his curious mind and I love that he's old enough to have these interesting conversations.
