I love the idea of 'cultivating awe' as a defiant act against despair. It's like saying, 'You can't take away my ability to find wonder and beauty in the world.' It's a powerful form of resistance and resilience.

Thanks, Alex! Yes, it’s straight from my bag of existential approaches. It’s certainly being put to the test at the moment.

Great post. The full moon last night and the sunrise this morning left me in awe.

Thanks, Moorea! Yes, the sun and moon are often a source of awe for me, too. Today I chose to be awed by the sheer thickness of the fog at sunrise. Nature is endlessly inspiring when we allow ourselves to set aside expectations and just appreciate what’s in front of us. I appreciate this reminder!

Lori, I'm in! Your commitment to awe inspires me. Whatever happens externally, we can still be kind to one another. I consider that awe-inspiring! And I love the other ways you connect with awe.
