“Around us, life bursts with miracles–a glass of water, a ray of sunshine, a leaf, a caterpillar, a flower, laughter, raindrops. If you live in awareness, it is easy to see miracles everywhere. Each human being is a multiplicity of miracles. Eyes that see thousands of colors, shapes, and forms; ears that hear a bee flying or a thunderclap; a brain that ponders a speck of dust as easily as the entire cosmos; a heart that beats in rhythm with the heartbeat of all beings. When we are tired and feel discouraged by life’s daily struggles, we may not notice these miracles, but they are always there.”
-Thich Nhat Hanh
Sometimes we get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life. We get clouded by our struggles and challanges and we forget the true miracle that life is. There are miracles everywhere. You are a miracle. Your body is a miracle. What about the way a caterpillar creates a cacoon and completely changes into a butterfly. It’s all actually astonishing! Let every breath remind us what a gift life is; what a miracle it is to be alive.
Take a deep breath
And … May you recognize miracles everywhere.
Love,
Tara
