Emotion of the day

[Heather Shay]

Wonder is an emotion comparable to surprise that people feel when perceiving something rare or unexpected (but not threatening). It has historically been seen as an important aspect of human nature, specifically being linked with curiosity and the drive behind intellectual exploration.^[1] Wonder is also often compared to the emotion of awe^[2] but awe implies fear or respect rather than joy. Science fiction can produce a sense of wonder.

Contentment is an emotion felt when the present situation is perceived to be complete as it is.
