Why isn't it wonderful?

Wonderful. 
Full of wonder.

Why does this word not attract a greater response? Is it because we are numb to awe?

How could we use it so sloppily, so inappropriately; a word spit out harshly, a word used to deflect the possibility of deeper relationship. 

Think about it-- when was the last time you used the word wonderful?
Were you actually filled with inspired wonder, or merely issuing a statement of evasive sarcasm?

Why did you do that? You ruined the word for everyone.
