(Wednesday, 09 May 2018, Hamlet Place, ACT)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Complete Text (Fragments #1 to #29)

~~~~~~~~~
In truth, life is a journey of wonder and beauty where love and grace endow warm zest. Our human incarnation on these earthly plains confer joy and awesome wonders. Thus, each individual soul can truly wander with wonder at the marvellous magnificence that greets us in space and time.
~~~~~~~~~
The world as we experience from our unique life perspective is truly an amazing and exciting place to be in. In a fond glimpse, we notice and see the truth of beauty and splendour everywhere we turn. Our attention and focus invites the miracle moment to reveal to us its secret.
~~~~~~~~~
In fact, our five senses tell and inform us of the sheer elegance and finesse that occupy every aspect of the natural world untainted by human intervention. There is order in the apparent madness and haphazard vistas of nature. Yes, we are confronted by such astounding grace and abundant miracles that greet us even in the plainness of everyday life.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder constitutes the entire spectrum of life unfolding right before our eyes. Wonder is truly the vivid experience of the magical moment and miraculous revelation of life unfolding. Wonder is a personal self-discovery that awakens the soul.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder is the bestowal of awesome grace that reveals to our heart the sheer magnificence of profound greatness that is abundantly manifest in all life forms in this diverse universe. Wonder wakes us up to our latent potential for self-discovery and self-fulfillment in an ever-expanding cosmos of intelligent consciousness.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder is the simple realisation in a brief glimpse of the marvels of Mother Nature. Wonder seeks to draw out our bright potential and our holy innocence as a human child of a glorious universe rich in lavish splendour and wonderful grandeur.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder takes us on an awesome journey of inner self-discovery and personal enchantment that seems to play hide-and-seek in the ordinary tapestry of everyday life as we know it to be. Wonder awakens our feeling nature.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder is truly an encounter with our mystic self not yet blemished by the repetitive notions and struggles that enslave our divine soul. Wonder elevates our sixth sense and frees our soul from the excessive grind of daily stress and strain of struggling to make a decent living.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder tells us to let go of our petty annoyances and cold indifference at life's crossroads. Wonder welcomes and delights us to put on the radiant garment of curiosity and gentle alertness to meet life's amazing miracles and extravagant magnificence. Wonder is the freedom to explore our creative fantasy.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder triggers our emotional psyche to seize the moment when divine inspiration calls out to our intimate soul. Wonder alerts our curious nature to ask: "Why?" And then wonder inspires our heart to boldly pursue the chance encounter with fate and destiny on our journey path.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder awakens our sleepy heart and drowsy soul that live somewhat frozen in a body ravaged by the harsh consequences of hurts and pains inflicted by the tragedies of life and the abrasive corruption inflicted by a cruel worldview. Wonder heals our heart and soul with rest and stillness.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder invites us to taste once more the ambrosia of paradise found. Wonder leads us to the light that shines in our misty darkness to reveal profound moments of vivid clarity. Wonder is holy inspiration knocking on the door of our heart to reveal to our inner soul the imminent dawn of love that enraptures.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder brings the mysterious and the magical transformation into the the seemingly insignificant ordinary moment, and transfigures the physical environment into mystical enchantment. The significance of wonder is beyond the logical language of reason. That's why wonder feels so magically transforming and healing.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder is the creative aspect of life that calls to us to participate in the spectacular movement of beauty and harmony in the synchronicity and ecstasy of spontaneity. Wonder is the soul's eternal delight. A heart filled with a sense of wonder is ever always enchanted by the miracle of life.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder resides in the tender innocence like the opening of the wild flower unnoticed by foreign intrusion. Beauty is wonder in a lovely unfolding of grace from start to end. Wonder is mystery inviting our soul to dance with the Spirit that animates all life.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder is where the God of the Universe meets our soul in the spontaneous embrace of divine affection with the touch of omnipotent vibration. Wonder tells us very clearly that there is a divine hand that touches us with love, understanding and zest for life.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder is truly the moment of grace uplifting your soul. Wonder recreates your soul as an eye witness of the miracle moment that captivates you. Wonder is the precursor of blessings that help us journey with faith, hope and love.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder is in the ultimate encapsulation of inner stillness speaking in the calm silence clearly and loudly without words or language. Wonder is a language of its own created by a loving God who is closer to your heart and soul than your own breath. Wonder is like our guardian angel, ever by our side to bring light to our darkness.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder is truly the eternal promise of everlasting bliss in the presence of the divine. God loves us much more than our little minds can comprehend. We are ever on a journey as pilgrims to the kingdom of everlasting joy. Wonder is the way of a child who enters the kingdom of God through holy innocence.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder empowers you to be a creative soul to know your purpose in life and to know that you are ever always aligned with your calling in your earthly incarnation here. Your purpose drives your passion, and passion begins with wonder and awe and fires the creative child with excitement, enchantment and exultation.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder allows you the promise of creating miracles as a child of a loving Universe singing the song of creation without end. Wonder is truly the dance of life in the ever-changing seasons of life that come and go, rise and fall even as the tides ebb and flow from sunrise to sunset. Wonder has no expiry date.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder is the spectacular enmeshed with the ordinary and the mundane in a web of creative exuberance. Each aspect of our emotional and feeling nature exults and excites in exuberant wonder and child-like delight. Our very life stream pulsates with the forces of wonder in exquisite splendour. Wonder is a vital part of human nature as is curiosity.
~~~~~~~~~
Thus, here and now, we must learn to connect holistically with our inner child -- our soul essence -- in a marvellous union of miraculous wonder that never ends. We do so through our feeling nature that dances with the mighty wind and embraces the breezy cognition of pure innocence and grace beyond description. Wonder is about play and fun with carefree laughter.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder is where grace ushers our soul into an audience with our divine oneness. Wonder helps us to realise and to know that we are each a being of light and love. Wonder enlightens the soul to transcend the mortal limitations of the sensorial self to reach the infinite grandeur of eternity.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder shows us the kingdom of heaven that dwells in our midst even in our apparent brokenness and harsh surroundings. Wonder is akin to saintly madness which is beyond the reach of fact, logic and reason. Wonder is beyond the fixation of the status quo. Wonder is creative change that never ceases to amaze.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder takes us on the unending journey of self-realisation to truly learn our place in the infinitesimal realm of consciousness. Wonder is the precursor of the conscious awareness that's akin to instant enlightenment. Wonder is mystery that awaits our discovery in real-time.
~~~~~~~~~
And what is enlightenment? True enlightenment is really the casting of all your temporal burdens so that your undying soul is uplifted by grace into the divine presence of God. Such is the vivid clarity that wonder bestows beyond the scope of the ordinary sensory perception that is often over-rated by the sleeping masses.
~~~~~~~~~
Wonder awaits in stillness, and deep silence is the portal -- the eternal darkness -- that hides the cave of illumination. Silent stillness is thus the gateway through which the soul journeys to reach the vastness of timeless wisdom and understanding beyond all thought forms and human language. Here God awaits your soul as a father awaits the prodigal son with eager anticipation.
~~~~~~~~
Wonder is the profound way where beauty and truth gather with grace to adore divine love in the act of abundant creation. Wonder is love in motion. Wonder is the promise to "hold Infinity in the palm of your hand, and Eternity in an hour" as the inspired poet William Blake rightly said.
~~~~~~~~~

    Errata: "... any many" should read as "... many many".

    I could not find an essay on 'Wonder' that captured the mellow point of view. So, I sat down one late morning to write a first hand written draft in my notebook. Later that afternoon, I spent some three hours writing an enhanced copy on my iPad Air2. It took any many drafts to prune this philosophical essay to a nice shine. After some more thinking, I finally got the essay to a fine polish the next day. I decided to split the story posts into so many fragments so that you could consider each paragraph on its own. Hope this inspires you to feel and think deeper, any way your heart and mind takes you. Thank you. Leon
