The Seekers after Smooth Things

Okay kiddo, so there are some people who really like things that are smooth, like a glass marble or a polished gemstone. They call themselves “seekers after smooth things”. They might collect these things and keep them as treasures.

These people think that smooth things are very beautiful and special. They enjoy touching and holding them because they feel really nice in their hands. They might even spend a lot of time searching for the smoothest rocks or shells on a beach.

Some people think that there might be a deeper meaning to this love of smooth things. They believe that these seekers might be searching for a sense of calm and peace, since smooth things have a very calming effect on our minds.

So that’s it, kiddo! Some people just really like things that are smooth and pretty, and it makes them happy.
