Simply Sunday *Wonder

Circus Trees Gilroy Gardens
Viewing bees making honey Gilroy Gardens
Arch Circus Tree Gilroy Gardens

Do you ever wonder how things work, are created or made by nature? This weeks journal prompt is *Wonder. Try and take a photograph of a child / or anyone engaged in wondering about something, write about things that interest you that you have always wondered about, draw a picture of something of wonder. These images of the sycamore trees have me in full awe and wonder, how could someone create something like this? I have often wondered just how bees make honey? My niece and I watched in amazement of how the bees went about their work in the hive. Every time I cross the Golden Gate Bridge or see a similar structure I wonder how did someone think of this, engineer it and set the building of something so magnificent into motion. When we see these structures they are amazing and full of wonder. Well I hope you can find something of *Wonder and add your link right here to share with us! What things do you *Wonder about? I hope you are able to keep your day simple and enjoy Sunday for all it holds for you.
Mystery creates wonder and wonder is the basis of man's desire to understand. --Neil Armstrong
Vision is the art of seeing things invisible.-- Johnathan Swift
