A Quarter to Fly by sunshineartdesign

 
Remember when you were a kid, and dandelions were begging to be blown, butterflies were fairies, and backyards were secret gardens? We were driving home today through a small stretch of road with tangled trees and underbrush, and my three year old exclaimed, “This is a jungle!”

Everything is amazing when you’re a kid.

And really, I think its good to not lose that sense of wonder.  We live in an increasingly apathetic society where people are unimpressed and bored. No thank you!

Go for a walk.  Try to see things in the same way you would have when you were small.

We live in a city, and our neighborhood probably doesn’t look very inspiring.  However, my daughter and I went for a “nature exploration walk” the other day just around our neighborhood, and even the smallest things impressed her. We had fun exploring, and when we came home, we brought home a collection of all sorts of natural found objects. And then we had fun photographing them together! The results:

Don’t lose your sense of wonder! We live in a beautiful Creation, and I am thankful to God for it!
Go outside and look around the way a child would.
Lose yourself in a book the way a child would.
Care. Give someone you love a bear hug.
Catch a firefly, let it go. 
Draw a picture without worrying if its perfect
Play with your food, run in the rain, blow some bubbles, pick some wild flowers.
Have some wholesome wonderful fun! Remember what it was like to be a kid and you will be inspired!
