Every Day

Every day there are miracles
So "average" that we take them for granted:


Sun-set, sun-rise
The voices of birds.


Who could fully appreciate
The daily gift of a loved one’s return?

it's a nice post Cloudia.

I just really want to know why obscure musician's lyrics come pouring out of my head in response to what I read on the internets.

I am of a mind that the smaller the miracle the more profound the effect it has. Give me the growth of a tomato plant and I will feel life moving forward and lose the sense of the static.

miracles en miniature? No they are the big ones, the ones that make life worth having.

Aloha, Cloudia

THANK YOU FOR THAT!

And especially the Yellow and Blue colours of the first two pics. I felt lighter and brighter as soon as I clicked on them.

What a beautiful gentle push into the Glories Season and weekend of Easter!!!!

Blessings from the Mainland,

PS: I love what Walking Man said too! All the people wanted Jesus to perform the Red Sea burning bush Miracle. But cut yourself (NOT ON PURPOSE) and watch the BODY HEAL ITSELF)!!!!! What a MIRACLE in and of itself. Small, but Lifesaving!

Well said Walking...well said!

Oh Cloudia, I knew I would find the sun here, and find it I did :-) Thank you for that. Plus, I glimpsed Anubis below, which such an incongruous image for Hawaii that I had a delightful laugh, too.

Thank you for that.
