Anne Lamott:

Wow comes in all shapes and sizes, like people ... A lowercase wow might be seeing a kid execute a dive at a town pool, or coming upon a blanket of poppies in the field that was destroyed by grass fire last summer.  And then there are the uppercase Wows.  Yosemite.  Fireworks.  Watching puppies being born at the neighbors' when you were six.

Help, Thanks, Wow, p. 74
