And by wonder, let’s think about those moments when we see or experience something that makes us breathe in deeply, and then causes us to pause and just be there. In life, there are moments like this when we think about our child’s first steps, or that surprise party your wife threw you that truly and utterly surprised you. Maybe it comes when you travel.

Now, look at what you do in a given day. Not much of it is inherently built for wonder-instilling, is it? Is there something you can do there? Anything?

Could you even shoot for remarkable? An eyebrow raise might even suffice, if we get right down to it.

What comes to mind?
