Our children constantly seem to find the "wow" in the world around them whether it be ants on the ground or a stick turned magic wand. Often times, we push this curiosity aside due to our busy schedules, being late, or just fatigue

Ruttenberg encourages us to embrace a child's sense of wonder and wow, also known as radical amazement.

Radical Amazement was coined by Jewish scholar Abraham Joshua Herschel, who said, "Our goal should be to live life in radical amazement. ....get up in the morning and look at the world in a way that takes nothing for granted. Everything is phenomenal; everything is incredible; never treat life casually. To be spiritual is to be amazed.”
