Have you ever thought any moment of your life was boring or unfair or uninspired or uncomfortable or anything short of incredible? I'd like to remind you, because I was just reminded, that  it's all a matter of perspective. Here's a fantastic video to entertain and remind you of all that that I just watched on my sister's blog: Everything is amazing, and nobody's happy. Life is short. Make the most of it by appreciating all the details as well as the big things. I put on a little class on how to read minds last week (subtle energy connection technique - I'll let you know when the video is ready) and one student sensed how another walked around in a continual state of awe - noticing and appreciating details like the sunrise, a tree, a building, conversations with friends, etc. that most people get used to, take for granted, and forget to enjoy. It's called freshness of experience. Abraham Maslow may have coined the phrase while describing his concept of the self-actualized personality. Would you like to see the world that way? I suspect that it's possible for anyone - if you simply stop, look, and listen for it. Next time you wake up in a warm house, say "Wow!" Pull some breakfast from the fridge or microwave and say it again. Say it out loud to share the experience with anyone around you. Sit down in your car and say it louder. Repeat it several times as you zoom down the highway at 70 mph. Say it when you turn on your computer. When you buy something online and get it shipped to your doorstep, or when you read emails from friends and family, or weather reports for ten days into the future. Say it when you see the blue, blue sky. Or stars. Or clouds. Rain or sun or snow. Say it when you see the horizon, whether it's near or far. A bird, a deer, a person. Say it when you look into someone's eyes and feel that connection that we all share. Say it after you kiss that woman or man you love and watch the positive reaction that your positive reaction causes. Count how many times you're able to say "Wow!", and mean it, in a single day. Let's make it a contest! Your high score is called your wow capacity, and it can grow over time. If you're in a crowd and you're too shy to say it out loud, just mouth it - as long as you feel even a slight sense of awe, it counts. Don't just use it on your good days - vacations, weekends, holidays. Use it on your bad days and discover how gratitude brings peace and takes the sting out faster. Your wow capacity on a bad day is called wow limit. Or something. Let me know if you think of a better term.
