Pleasure to Me is Wonder


"Pleasure to me is wonder—the unexplored, the unexpected, the thing that is hidden and the changeless thing that lurks behind superficial mutability."
H.P. Lovecraft
August 20, 1890: American horror and sci-fi writer H.P. Lovecraft channeled his frequent childhood nightmares into his work. He was born in Rhode Island, 123 years ago today.
   
When my sis and I go walking every morning, we try and find the unexplored, the unexpected, the thing that is hidden behind uncharted paths.  This is wonder to me and we have indeed happened upon it many times.  Thank goodness it's not the horror or sci-fi this author writes about. :)
