I was just thinking about wonders and won-a-days so I searched for wonders on the internet and found the following;

Seven Wonders of the Modern World
The Empire State Building
Itaipu Dam
CN Tower
Panama Canal
Channel Tunnel (Chunnel)
Netherlands North Sea Protection Works
Golden Gate Bridge

Seven Wonders of the Ancient World
The Pyramids of Egypt
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon
The Statue of Zeus
The Temple of Artemis
The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus
The Colossus at Rhodes
The Lighthouse of Alexandria

I also found a list of "One Hit Wonders", the wonders of Math, the wonders of Physics, 3 D wonders, WebSite wonders and on and on and on. I find this very interesting, although there were a few exceptions to the rule it appears that the focus of wonders by most is a focus on what mankind can make or do. So in the spirit of won-a-days I am starting my own list of wonders, I'm sure it will continue to grow and need lots of revisions, maybe I will even come up with my own 7 wonders list, I doubt it though, that would be so limiting. So here goes:

1. Love of the unconditional variety
2. Friends
3. Smiles
4. Birth
5. Trees (especially old growth trees, but all trees)
6. Laughter
7. Rain
8. Sunshine
9. Snow
10. Wind
11. Lightning
12. Thunder
13. Birds can Fly
14. Flowers
15. Animals
16. Tears
17. Hugs
18. Bugs
19. Sight
20. Smell
21. Touch
22. Ideas
23. Beliefs
24. Fairies (Hey it's my list!)

To be continued...........

1. Love of any variety
2. believing in things you can't see, touch, smell, feel or hear
3. Cats
4. Dogs
5. weeds
6. looking so deeply in someones eyes you can see yourself
