My ‘Wonder’ful Passion

“Type of the wise who soar, but never roam, true to the kindred points of heaven and home.”

I am passionate about Wonder.  I mean the activity of wondering. I also mean the state in which one finds oneself overwhelmed by fabulous wonder. And I also mean that moment when you can’t keep it to yourself anymore and you have to share the moment with someone and call it wonderful.

Do you remember the first moment you experienced unabashed wonder? I don’t remember the first moment I experienced full blown wonder with my being-in-the-world, but I remember one that still gives me tingles. I remember discovering that I could imagine a world, design the rules (mostly), and all the other cool stuff, and then play in there (living and playing were the same then). Wow that was cool! Infinite fresh worlds to wonder about everyday!

I am adopting a pig. I am already in a state of wonder. I stare at his picture and wonder about him. What is he thinking? I am struck by its beauty. Ask my mom, she expresses one wonderful thing about the pig everyday — yesterday it was its pink ears. I’m also naming my pig “Wonder” Yayy wonder! I hope everyone who reads this immediately wonders about something. I’m already wondering who is reading this and what you are like.
