Feeling amazed?

The wonderful shock of encountering something that exceeds our expectations in a positive way. A moment of delight that expands our sense of possibility.

The unmet need

Absorption of beauty and goodness; integration of positive experiences into our worldview.

A question to sit with

How does this moment of wonder invite me to see myself and the world differently? What becomes possible?

What to do right now

Pause to fully absorb this moment of wonder. Close your eyes and replay it. Notice the sensations in your body. Write down or tell someone: "I am amazed by..." Let yourself fully receive this gift.
