Wonder how long a train journey would take between the two if there was a bridge between Russia and US.

Still remember being a kid and studying a globe for the first time. My brain melted seeing Russia and US were so close to each other. God I was stupid.

You were a kid, not stupid, these are the ideas that push boundaries don't feel bad for having them.

Yea, I didn't take that (or something similar to it) as feeling dumb. I took it as finding out something new. And I've been chasing that high ever since.
