Why this word is great
MIRABILIA — [Noun] Extraordinary things that inspire wonder; marvels of the natural or secular world. Unadapted borrowing from Latin mīrābilia ("marvels, wonders"), neuter plural of mīrābilis ("wonderful, marvelous"). Doublet of marvel. Unlike "miracles" (which demand divine fingerprints) or "curiosities" (which whisper of oddity), mirabilia are the world’s unscripted astonishments. It is the bioluminescent tide rolling ashore at midnight, the impossible geometry of a spider’s web jeweled with dew, or the way a stranger’s laughter can briefly stitch the world together. The mundane is full of them—proof that wonder needs no altar, only eyes open enough to be astonished.
