The childish awe of which you speak is the way I go about my daily life. The newest bud on a plumeria, the marvel of a freshly laid egg, the intoxicating scent of the leaves on a fig tree....surely simple pleasures but nontheless leaving me in awe of the universe, and feeling small. The world is filled with such wonders and it is magical.
Beautiful, beautiful poetry <3
I very much try to live my life that way too. Getting out of my comfort zone and familiar surroundings seems to jolt me back into that mindset. That's probably the reason I feel empty if I don't have a trip planned. Thank you @tamaralovelace!
