Awe Quote by Ajmal, from the book "Borders of the Inner World
““We are surrounded by miracles too common to notice. Think of the intricate patterns on a butterfly’s wing... or the way a seed split open becomes a tree. We often overlook these marvels because we are distracted by busier, louder things. ... Yet the capacity for wonder lives inside us; we just need to look closely””
