I still look back on those days and wonder how or where I found the courage to walk in that day because I don't think anyone of us can understand how terrifying it can be.

It's kind of strange with four cases so close together. It makes you wonder if there's something environmental.

I wonder if anyone else has an ear so tuned and sharpened as I have, to detect the music, not of the spheres, but of earth, subtleties of major and minor chord that the wind strikes upon the tree branches. Have you ever heard the earth breathe . . . ?

Women often wonder why they feel so bad at the end of a marriage, even if they are the ones who wanted it to end. It?s the loss of a partnership, loss of a dream, and loss of financial security, to name a few things.

To boast wonder takes great courage. Being left speechless with joy is not for the weak. We forget to be surprised by everyday miracles, like toast springing up, the mesmerizing blue in the sky, or even simple friendships. To touch and remember this delicate sense of wonder, we travel. We deliberately let ourselves become tourists to welcome in this unique delight.

It's not toothless. It has given the workers a lot of courage.
