I have understood worship to be a response to who God reveals Himself as. Sometimes we are overwhelmed by a revelation of God's love and we are moved to tears. Sometimes we get a revelation of His power and anger and we are terrified.God's revelation of Himself will usually result in an eruption of worship from a sensitive waiting vessel. A worshipper, then, would be one who is sensitive to God's revelation and has formatted his/her being to respond.

I like your definition. I see I don't have to sing to be worshipping. God reveals himself all of the time and I think we all are already formatted for worship. Being sensitive is what wears off so that we no longer are awed or moved by God revealing Himself.
If God shows me His love by sending some nice people into my life,I might think "look how nice I am! People love me" or "Look how nice people are..." or "God is Love and He lives in these people" I think all the three are expressions of worship.
