Today is dedicated to renewing your ability to be amazed.  To do so, start with re-Awakening “grandeur” in your Life — this morning, go someplace where you can immerse your Self in the pristine of Nature’s grand scale (e.g. a planetarium is great for this, as is the roof-top of a tall building. or a hike into a nearby “wilderness”).  While doing so, remember to pause every 15 minutes or so and see yourself “from above” — as a small, yet significant part of an amazingly large Whole.

Bonus Activity:  This afternoon/evening, re-discover the Wonders in your environment’s “minutia” as well (e.g. look very closely at spider webs, or the veins of a leaf, or a single blade of grass, or the patterns of another person’s eye, or the reflections in a dewdrop, or dust particles dancing in sunbeams, &/or the dimmest star in the sky.  Just as amazing, find an ant and simply watch it for 5 minutes).  While doing so, remember to pause every 15 minutes or so and see yourself “from below” — as an incredibly large, yet equally significant player in the lives of all the world’s “smaller things.”
