John Green said, we're never far from wonders. I could turn a corner and experience something new. I could stand still, look up at the old church, which you can't see in the dark, and discover something new. I think the point is that wherever you look, wherever you go, there's always a wonder. There's always something to discover, to be surprised by, to be inspired by. And going into a new year, maybe that's a great attitude to have. Like, what am I going to be inspired by? What am I going to be enlightened by that's right around the corner? Whether it's in the new year, whether it's around the corner on the street this morning, or whether it's in relationships or something else that you're doing, there's always a wonder that is right around the bend.
