W is for...

Today is day twenty-three of the A to Z Challenge.


Today's topic is wonder.


I don't mean wonder in the sense if questioning or being curious. I mean the other sense of wonder. Being in awe of someone or something. Being dazzled by a sunset. Seeing the magic in the technology we have when compared to the past.

There isn't enough wonder in our world, in our lives.

I find wonder in so many simple moments. Sometimes I get giddy, because I get wrapped up in the our awesome world. Awesome in the original sense of the word, not the modern, "wicked awesome" sense.

Where do you find wonder? In a well crafted poem? The reflection of a mountain in a clear lake? The stars in the sky?

  1. Our world truly is full of astonishing, inspiring, amazing sights and experiences--so much so that it's strange that we don't walk around in a constant state of wonder. Thanks for this lovely, thoughtful post.

    1. Chris, thanks for visiting. It's kind of hard not to find wonder everywhere, so I'm glad you find it, too!
