I can tell you...
Wonder has been mistaken for glam, for ever-increasing budgets and light shows.
The wonder of the smallness of life has been subsumed with the 50 inch plasmas, hyper-reality, and multi-tasking screen culture.
The wonder of peace and silence; the pregnant God-reality of a moment has been washed away by overly triumphant, ticketed celebrations and a parade of charades.
... I think that's what happened to wonder.
We killed it.

I think, too, you lose it as you grow up. :-( BUT, Christmastime is a good time, if not the best time, to get it back. If you have kids, you should try to abscond some of it, or live vicariously through them through this time. Hey, if it was good enough for Jesus to come as a kid...should be good enough for a health regression.
Faith like a child? Yesh!
