The “Miracles” I talk about have nothing to do with incredible
acts of nature or scientific discoveries that boggle the mind..
These things may well be stunning.
Think for a moment that the average person has 25,550 days
she/he will live on this planet.
That’s 25,550 opportunities to bring
loving-kindness to your part of the planet.
I wonder why that was so much easier when we were two?
(Assuming you were not raised in a home
surrounded by profound unwellness.)
When we are upset and angry,
we often have a list of “causes” that is lengthy.
I wonder why when things are going along smoothly
that we often believe it is our brilliance producing the result?
What are the ingredients of a world that works for everyone?
Who is included?
Who is excluded?
What makes us think it has anything to do with what others do?
“Whenever you are in doubt or when the self becomes too much with you,
try the following expedient:
Recall the face of the poorest and most helpless man (person)
you have ever seen and ask yourself if the step you contemplate
is going to be of any use to him (or her)…..
Then you will find your self melting away.”
M Gandhi
