When we put our happiness on hold, waiting for miracles, we bypass the real miracles of daily life. Each day I experience the miracles of sunshine, flowers, food, warmth, love, happiness, gentleness between strangers, buses that arrive on time, feeling fit and powerful, other people's babies, and my family’s good health.
Last night I was watching snowflakes in the moonlight at midnight... My daughter, half-asleep, stumbles by on her way to the bathroom. We watch the magic in silence, giant flakes filling a ghostly grey sky. I half-expect Santa to appear...
That's a real miracle—a simple moment I'll never forget; an experience that makes my life richer and brings me great happiness.

I feel so blessed that I notice these little miracles each day. If I'd won the lottery, I’d be in that sunny place, and would have missed watching snow at midnight.
Sometimes the miracle is already in front of us.
