How have you experienced it? What has caused you to be overwhelmed by beauty, meaning, sense of purpose, etc...?
It could be in art, relationships, life in general. What are some of your "Wow" moments?

Just last summer, my children and I were at the local state park, enjoying a day of picnicking and swimming. While in the water, we noticed a gorgeous Monarch butterfly floating down the river. It seemed wrong to allow such a beautiful creature to remain in the water, even in death, so I waded over to fish it out.
Gently, I carried it to shore, and that is when we noticed a slight flutter in its body. Realizing that it was alive, I took it to a sunny spot, where I hoped it might live if its wings would dry.
For over an hour I held that butterfly while it regained it's strength, and after it was able to walk, it crawled up over my face and into my hair. For the rest of the afternoon I wore that Monarch like a bejeweled hairpiece, and when it was able, it flew away.
Such a small thing, yet the memory of a most amazing encounter will remain with me always.

Yes, I have experienced it. However, I'm not at all convinced I could explain it. My Steve and I had a relationship of such intensity, and at the same time such tenderness, that there's no describing the way it felt. I guess you could say I got to where I couldn't tell where I left off and he began. It was like we were really welded into one.
I miss that man!

Regaining consciousness on top of a snow covered mountain after blowing my mind out with halucinigenic mushrooms. I completely lost my memory, it took hours for things to start coming back, when they did, it was a flood, starting with the realization that I lived on planet earth, then the north american continent and so forth. It was way intense, terrifying and I'd never want to do it again, but it was monumental for me. I didn't know my own name, or who the person was that was with me or what I was doing on a mountain...

I am overwhelmed sometimes when I hear a children's choir singing; kinda corny, I know, but true. The other day on TV, I saw The Chicago Children's Choir, and they blew me away; it was very moving.

Wow, to me is a little bit extra zest where gazzing kaching cholida whollop happens as a buzz to the brain, free from drugs, alcohol, and caffiene, is a kind of natural high where the idea is beyond explanation or worth, value beyond description. The chinese in mandarin have a fun sounding word to this, it means "Mind Boggelling"
What is love? You, whether you realize it have slam dunked such a popular question it is going to get like a gazzilionteen ubber hits of popular appeal. Meaning of life and love in one?
The two most web hit googles are meaning of life and love, says it all, many a splendid thing.
What is this thing called love, sex as an expression of orgasim to a person who makes your nerves chill out, or the religion you so dearly follow or keep. Or a narsarcist complex beyond description, or the family life so priceless where you keep you positive hopes to oneself?
My most profound moment? Bazaarly was the extreme positive after the profound negative, how do you place contrast as one of God's art works in your life, where the arms sweep you up and along for no reason beyond where you hope as a child to not be foresaken?
Perhaps hurt as a separation, where a really close friend dies, your parent you like most dies as your role model and then your ex says "You are a lousy husband, we have no food to eat, what kind of provider are you" then you send her out to the outlaws to beg for food whom hate you and she cheats upon you, having suffered twenty years of illness to be cast down unemployed wrongly denied welfare for both, then bankrupted and homeless would try any saint?
But, can you imagine, seeing the wedding as a sign of hope from healing, as a journey where an ex's supreme negativity did not matter but the flexibility to be who you are for what you, not just extremely positive causing her denial, but healed, as a well balanced individual from morbid obesity to normal body weight with 22 illnesses gone, is something, as a fact, where opinions will always be irrelevant? Can you imagine a 20 1/2 year illness made whole again, a disability for no known cure, healed using science you research yourself but no one else wants?
LMAO, to me, it is my wow. A love, my God, Jesus would wait 2000 years, for me to face three criticisms such as, it never happened, it wasnt you and you are not healed, LOL whatever happens noone can take away what I know scientifically works as my love in life, not myself, but Jesus showing the way and continuing to bless. What an awesome God?
From dianosis with two opinions, a smile stayed on my lips for 3 months, how do you hide such joy? You cant! I have no regrets in my life, for even in adversity God has dearly blessed me and I am grateful.

Looking at a beautiful sunset (and nature and the animals) and knowing it didn't just happen on it's own.
