Looking with “eyes of wonder”


I have a meditation booklet that has a passage to read each day. Most days I read the passage for the day. I know my day goes better when I do take a few moments to reflect and quietly center myself at the start of the day.

The introduction for this year has a suggestion in it to “live each day looking at the world through eyes of wonder”.

Wow, just imagine what this perspective would bring to each moment of our day!
Just what opportunities would unfold if we look with a fresh pair of wide open eyes to take in the world and notice the crisp clear details we all too often miss? What a gift this would be!

I encourage you to incorporate “eyes of wonder” into the next 363 days of 2016—remember this is a leap year. We’ve been given the present of an extra day this year too!

May you take nothing for granted and receive everything life brings your way in 2016 as a gift!
