On Stopping to Smell the Roses
“He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed.”
-Albert Einstein
The true secret of Albert Einstein’s genius was not his raw intellectual power but his ability to harness that intellect to a sense of pure wonder and intense curiosity in everything around him.
In a world of endless distraction and mindless entertainments are our senses simply numbed to the simple beauty that is all around us every day?
Look close, there’s an entire universe in a single rose, if we just take the time to look.
