Hey,
It's Colby.
I remember this moment like it was yesterday.
The very first time I went to the theater was for my birthday.
My dad took me to see Jurassic Park.
I'll never forget that scene,
DNA being extracted from a mosquito,
Frozen in time for millions of years.
And just like that,
Little electric signals started sparking in my brain.
Is this possible?
My childlike wonder took off,
Full speed.
How amazing.
My curiosity lit up.
Dino DNA.
Could you really bring back a species that had gone extinct?
I had a million questions for my dad after the movie.
Of course,
Jurassic Park was science fiction.
Fascinating,
But not based in reality.
Or so we thought.
Fast forward 32 years,
And what Spielberg imagined doesn't seem so far-fetched anymore.
Colossal Biosciences,
A biotech company,
Has announced something incredible.
The birth of three genetically modified dire wolf pups,
Romulus,
Remus,
And Khaleesi.
Born between October 2024 and January 2025,
They're now living in a 2,
000-acre preserve in the United States.
Using DNA from a 13,
000-year-old tooth and a 72,
000-year-old ear bone,
Scientists were able to reconstruct about 91% of the dire wolf genome.
Science fiction is slowly becoming science fact.
A once-extinct creature brought back to life,
And just like that,
My childlike wonder returned.
Meditation gives us so many gifts,
But for me,
The one I cherish most is that quiet sense of awe.
That feeling that there's more beneath the surface.
Layers of consciousness,
Mystery,
Existence.
These temporary bodies we live in,
They're not the whole story.
So,
Let's go back.
Back to that childlike state.
Where wonder lived in every breath.
Where everything was new.
Where anything felt possible.
And through meditation,
We can tap into that space again.
Not with answers,
But with presence.
With curiosity.
Wherever you are,
Find stillness.
Get comfortable.
Let your body settle.
And gently bring your focus to the breath.
The soft rise and fall of your chest.
Take a slow,
Deep breath.
And exhale.
Again.
Breathe in.
Notice the air moving in and out of your body.
Notice how it feels to simply be here.
There's nowhere to go.
Nothing to do.
Just this moment.
Let yourself rest here in this gentle rhythm.
Inhale.
As you breathe,
Allow your mind to soften.
Imagine what it's like to see the world for the first time.
Like a child.
Every sound,
Every scent.
Each heartbeat,
A miracle.
What if everything around you is more magical than you've ever realized?
Let that sense of wonder fill you.
Maybe it shows up as warmth in your chest.
A gentle smile.
A feeling of lightness.
In this space of calm,
Curiosity,
And childlike wonder,
Remember you are part of something vast.
Something beautiful.
And this breath,
This one right here,
Is proof that you're alive and connected to it all.
Let's take one more deep breath together.
Exhale.
Breathe into the music.
And when you're ready,
Gently bring your awareness back.
Wiggle your fingers,
Maybe open your eyes,
And carry this sense of wonder with you.
This childlike wonder.
Www.
Mooji.
