Amazed by everything?

I read somewhere that a wise man (and woman) is amazed by everything. When you dig deeper, it probably is true for all of us. How else would one keep interested in one's job, day-to-day chores, the same things which we all have to repeat again and again. I guess it's this ability to be amazed by everything, everyday, that helps us in re-inventing life and looking at it with a different angle.

Notice a child climbing up and down stairs,they may be doing it everyday on the same stairs . But they still find some way of counting the steps differently, hopping with a difference in the length of stride,criss-crossing...just many different ways.The happiness on their face when they are conducting the daily task... is priceless. Same with some people at work. They may be doing the same things for years, but with a new way of lookong at their routine, they make their work-life (and those who come in contact with them) , a pleasurable and meaningful experience. Otherwise, you may imagine getting bored with one's job, life etc frequently, may create havoc. I guess, it's nature's way of keeping balance by giving most of us the ability to be amazed..

So, just be amazed by everything around you. You will not regret it!
