"To be alive, to be able to see, to walk, to have houses, music, paintings -- it's all a miracle. I have adopted the technique of living life from miracle to miracle."
-- Arthur Rubinstein
We don't know how or why anything happens. Sure, we can offer scientific explanations, psychological conjectures, and theological theories, but we don't really know all the forces involved and why they come together just the way they do, even for the smallest act or event. Artie's right -- it's all a mystery, all a friggin' miracle!
Just enjoy it. Enjoy it all. Can you think of another strategy that produces better results? I doubt it. Resistance sure doesn't work. And while it's been said that "ignorance is bliss," going through life in an unconscious state is pretty pitiful. Trying to understand and explain it all is a futile proposition, and adopting the dogma and myths of religion is a mere cop out.
What's left? Mystery and miracles! Joy! Life lived miracle to miracle. So, today, be on miracle patrol. Keep your eyes peeled for the miraculous. I think you'll be surprised how many awesome miracles occur to you on a day-to-day basis. You may even want to keep a miracle journal, just as a reminder.
Whatever you do, enjoy! And share. Share your miracles and your miraculous perspective with each and everyone you meet. Who knows? Your next miracle may be lying dormant in the heart of another, just awaiting your gentle touch.
