Awesome' and 'awful' are so overused in today's modern vocabulary, but when was the last time you experienced something truly awe-inspiring?
The precious nose, fingers and toes of a newborn, gurgling and blubbering with delight.
A meteor fleeing the inky sky;
the milky dust of the galaxy.
An elegantly refined ballet performance; skilfully poised with strength and grace.
The gentle brush of your love's first touch;
The first kiss;
The warmth of them next to you after so many years.
The oceanic vastness of this blue planet; the lingering music of whales — deep calling to deep.
Hearing God's voice — a whisper, a shout. Gentlemanly encouragement, always.
Watching brave, humble servants band together in community during a time of need...
— Never undervalue the truly magnificent in this world. Seek them out — dare to find the awesome and awe-inspiring — the daily miracles that are so worth noticing.
