PROJECT: WONDER
Project Wonder is a personal adventure into discovering wonder in the every-day. If you are interested in more of the background story, then check out this article I wrote for www.medium.com titled 'How every-day wonder can change your life'.
William Martin in the following extract expresses it beautifully.
“Do not ask your children
to strive for extraordinary lives.
Such striving may seem admirable,
but it is the way of foolishness.
Help them instead to find the wonder
and the marvel of an ordinary life.
Show them the joy of tasting
tomatoes, apples and pears.
Show them how to cry
when pets and people die.
Show them the infinite pleasure
in the touch of a hand.
And make the ordinary come alive for them.
The extraordinary will take care of itself.”
William Martin in The Parent's Tao Te Ching: Ancient Advice for Modern Parents
