Miraculous Nature

Kent, UK 2009

Visualize a window, a candle on the window sill - lit.  It's dark outside, the house is in the countryside.  See the sun coming up outside and spreading its light over the land in front of the house; gradually reaching the house itself and enveloping it in light.  A happy scene, a sense of hope, of healing, of opportunities opening up.  It's good. 

The inside of the house is still quite dark, although darkness is receding.  The occupants of the house are unaware of the golden light streaming towards and over their home.  They know that the sun comes up every morning, but they don't witness the magnificence of sunrise or sunset.  They accept the sun rises, they accept the sun sets.

Sometimes we take the miraculous for granted, and sometimes we see nature for what it is - magnificent!  Remember this today, remember that each night the sun sets and each morning the sun rises and KNOW what opportunities each new day brings - embrace the day and the opportunities presented.  This day is yours to do with as you will.  Life is precious, live each moment and don't ignore the miracles going on all around you - be aware.  Be appreciative.  Be loving and patient and kind.  Be you.
