wonder-full

The sky was stunning.  Over the course of half an hour the clouds and colors shifted and deepened.  As I changed my focus from one direction to another, it surprised me again and again.  

Wonder is such a blessing.










It is a wholesome and necessary thing for us to turn again to the earth and in the contemplation of her beauties to know of wonder and humility.
Rachel Carson










If a child is to keep alive his inborn sense of wonder, he needs the companionship of at least one adult who can share it, rediscovering with him the joy, excitement and mystery of the world we live in.
Rachel Carson
