Miracles

"People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think that the real miracle is to walk on earth. Everyday 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."

Beautiful! I remember waking up, opening my eyes and thinking "oh no not again" and now I open my eyes and think "YES! thank you" because you realize just how darned lucky you really are and that it's so miraculous that a pile of bones, flesh, etc could be experiencing the miracles of everyday. Ok sorry I'm cheesy this early in the morning.
