“People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth. Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don’t even recognize: a blue sky; white clouds; green leaves; the black, curious eyes of a child—our own two eyes. All is a miracle.” ―Thich Nhat Hanh
What miracle can you see from where you are?
Some unseen force of wind or geology or who knows what has nudged this tree across its long life into a distinctive tilt. The tree probably never even noticed.
What important influence in your life have you only noticed after the fact?
“Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see.” ―C.S. Lewis
What would you say is the world’s miracle story?
It’s quite common to see a picture of a girl with flowers. It’s less common to see a picture of flowers with a girl. Where you place the focus radically changes the picture.
What do you deliberately choose to put in the foreground of your vision?
“Pray for miracles, but plant cabbages.” ―Ken Follett
When has your diligent effort created something better than you could have imagined?
