Most Alive Monday: Sense of Wonder
"If a child is to keep alive his inborn sense of wonder, he needs the companionship of a least one adult who can share it, rediscovering with him the joy, excitement and mystery of the world we live in" - Rachel Carson (The Sense of Wonder)
Sometimes opportunity just falls right into my lap. It was really warm for a December morning so I decided to tidy up the back yard a bit. Satch played with some earth worms while I raked pine needles. While raking, a tiny red-back salamander paid us a visit. It appeared to be smiling and had a little clump of mud on it's cheek. I took a few photos of it while Satch lovingly draped earth worms over my arm as he patiently waited for his turn to hold the salamander.
*About Most Alive Monday: I've decided to make at least one "most alive choice" each day and post my favorite each Monday. This, of course, is to motivate me to consciously "live juicy"! I hope you'll join me and share your "most alive moment" in the comments section so we may inspire each other.
