Life, as an adult, sometimes suffocates those moments of wonder you had as a child - moments of mystery (where does all of the rain go after it falls?), moments of creativity (what animal does that cloud look like?), moments of empathy (who will care for the baby birds when their mother is gone?).
We should reach back to those moments often while we are wearing our 'adult clothes'. They help to open our minds and hearts to the everyday life around us, and may even give us an idea or two on how to solve a challenge or problem we may be facing in our grown-up existence.
As the author, Robert Fulghum wrote in "All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten," "...Wonder. Remember the seed in the Styrofoam cup: The roots go down and the plant goes up and nobody really knows how or why, but we're all like that."
Find the wonder in your world today. Stop. Think about it. Then, Go. It could change your life for a moment, or a lifetime.
Enjoy:-)
