***The Importance of Play and Childlike Wonder

Childlike wonder is essential to seeing the world in a fresh and unjaded way, akin to the perceptions of wonder experienced in childhood. Children, through their play and fresh perspective, offer adults the chance to witness miracles and steer away from cynicism. While adults tend to stop playing as they age due to various challenges like integrating sexuality into play during puberty, maintaining a childlike sense of wonder is crucial for experiencing the world's beauty and marvels.
