August 12 – Miracle

The word for today in my August Mindfulness challenge is miracle. I think life is full of ordinary miracles everywhere you look.Among the things that feel like a miracle to me, I count flowers of all kinds, butterflies, dragonflies, and bumble bees, trees, painted turtles, birds soaring in the sky, and big wide smiles on my grandchildren’s faces.

Miracle

“I realized it for the first time in my life: there is nothing but mystery in the world, how it hides behind the fabric of our poor, browbeat days, shining brightly, and we don’t even know it.”
Sue Monk Kidd, The Secret Life of Bees

Take a look around you and tell me what miracles you see in plain sight.

Today I looked for things that felt like a miracle in my yard. Here are the images I made.

May you walk in beauty.
