Wonder is all around you if you can see with the right eyes.

Do you remember when you were a child, how exciting the world was for you? Everything you looked at was wondrous.

However, as we grow old and dive into the dynamics of society we slowly lose this childlike sense of wonder.

The world becomes just a boring sequence of routines that you mindlessly do, almost everything looks the same.

Even if you hear amazing things that science has just discovered, or see a beautiful natural scenery, it’s just nothing special to you.

The problem is not that you are grown up, or that there is nothing special out there, it’s in your boring perception. These quotes will explain better.
