"Be realistic. Plan for a miracle." -Bhagwan Shree Rajineesh

Ah, miracles.  Those little pieces of magic that float around us daily that most of us are so consumed by our own lives that we have almost become blind to see.  We block our own ability to see, not just the good things in life, but the GRAND things in life.  But, here's the good news....we are never not fully able ,with just a change in perspective, to be able to not only be a receiver of miracles, but a creator of miracles.  It truly is amazing how many miracles start to show up daily when you remove the blinders and start showing gratitude for the small bits of magic that show up in your everyday life.

I recently started a book that I have been saying that I needed to start for a couple of years now.  Some may say I'm a procrastinator, but I prefer the term "late bloomer."  This isn't a book that one just stumbles across at Barnes and Noble and it most certainly isn't a book you force yourself to read.  I truly believe that it is one of life's grand miracles that shows up exactly when you need it and I believe it's a book that all of us are called to read at some point.  The book, which is entitled "A Course in Miracles," is just what the title explains, a course, fully including a student workbook and a teacher's manual.  I am only a few pages into it, but I already know I won't be the same person when I finish reading the last page of this book.  It is one of those reads that grabs you by the gut within the first two pages and you know that somehow, somewhere it was predestined for you to find this book, in this exact moment.

Isn't it funny how life has a way of giving you exactly what you need, exactly when you need it?  You know, I guess it isn't that funny at all, because I have known that this is the way God, the Universe, Source (whatever you may call it) works for quite sometime now.  In our human bodies, it's sometimes hard to remember that God's timing is never off, never skewed, and most certainly never late.  All of us, every now and then, forget to plan for the miracles that are destined to show up.  And when we aren't looking for them, it makes it very hard for us to see them, but it doesn't mean they aren't happening.  It's law. Maktub, or for those of you that don't speak Arabic..."It is written." Expect them, plan for them, and know that they are coming because they are already on their way.

Sending you light, love, and many, many miracles.
