Word for the Day - 2020

Amazement

"I want to spend my life married to Amazement.
Let me become notorious
For going around with my bridal veil tossed back
And my mouth saying "I do"!
Renewing my vows with life.
Every day.
A hundred times a day."

~Sue Monk Kidd 

Now if that isn't a wonderful description illustrating the word Amazement!
 
from Wikidata: Astonishment, stupefaction, amazement
Wikipedia didn't have any data on this word.
Astonishment definitely fits.
 
Do you find amazement in your days?
For me it is just noticing the changing of the season.
Can you believe tomorrow is Autumnal Equinox? 
It seems like overnight it is Autumn.

Welcome with open arms the delights of Autumn, the freshness of cooler air,
and lift your face to the sprinkles falling from the sky. Sing, twirl, and embrace with Amazement!

I am imagining that fur stole tossed carelessly over a shoulder while we dance to a little night music.

Let's "notice what we notice" each and every day with amazement!
