“I have been finding treasures in places I did not want to search.
I have been hearing wisdom from tongues I did not want to listen.
I have been finding beauty where I did not want to look.
And I have learned so much from journeys I did not want to take.
I have learned that miracles are only called miracles
because they are often witnessed by only those
who can can see through all of life’s illusions.
I am ready to see what really exists on other side,
what exists behind the blinds,
and taste all the ugly fruit
instead of all that looks right, plump and ripe.”
.
“To love someone
is to see a miracle invisible to others.”
.
“A miracle is when the whole is greater
than the sum of its parts.
A miracle is when one plus one
equals a thousand.”
.
“Miracles are not contrary to nature
but only contrary
to what we know about nature.”
.
“To live at all is miracle enough.”
.
“There are days when I think I don’t believe anymore.
When I think I’ve grown too old for miracles.
And that’s right when another seems to happen.”
