A profound sense of wonderment can suffuse your thoughts as you roam about your world today. What once seemed commonplace and dull will likely now capture your interest and stimulate your senses. You may recognize these feelings of awe as being similar to those you experienced in childhood when confronted with breathtaking sights, sounds, and scents for the very first time. Making the most of this new innocence of perspective can be as simple as analyzing it thoroughly to determine why it arose and how you can retain it. If you feel it wavering today, try making an effort to see the beauty in everything you see around you, from nature's glories to humankind's ingenuity.

The world can be a truly beautiful and wondrous place when we allow ourselves to summon up the sense of awe we felt as children when looking at the world through innocent eyes. It is entirely possible to cast off the jaded and cynical attitudes that prevent one from perceiving life's simple mysteries, but we must consciously and willingly do so. As our perspective changes from one of worldliness to one of purity, our minds are opened to the breathtaking splendor that exists all around us. This change in vantage point transforms us, and while we may feel that the world has become new again it is really our renewed appreciation for the grandeur of our surroundings that is positively influencing our experience. As you recapture the wonder of your youth today, you will realize that the world has always been as beautiful as it is right now.
