The next time you pass a tabloid rack in the grocery store let it be a reminder to check the state of wonder and awe in your daily life. If you do find your life to be routine and wonderless, take a real tabloid, a small "pill of pausing," a silent moment to stand in awe and wonder at a tree, a singing bird or your infant's first attempts to walk. The average home is full of such tabloids to cure the wonderless.
