Notice With Wonder

 



"Give me the mind of a child." - Pablo Picasso

Children experience delight and curiosity in discoveries. They seek direct experience of the world as it unrolls. The joy of adventure becomes stimulation for their creative exploration.

As we grow, intuition requires a similar sense of wonder. It begins with awareness and the ability to expand and explore the images that flow. Eyes climb trees of possibility and fingers feel the crust of bark as bodies spiral into the branches. The breeze sends scents for inhalation. A new world opens for playfulness in all aspects of life.

Reflect on an event you observed in the past week with freshness and a twist. Take a mental stroll to a familiar place and observe it for the first time with a child's attitude and insight.  

Notice the ocean as more than water and waves. See color in variety and subtlety of gradation. Hear a bird's music and the wind's roar.

Get into a rhythm a child might use to explain each situation.  Notice with Wonder.
