Looking for miracles is hard

So who would have thought that looking for miracles was hard?  Of course, I did!  And that's just on Day 2 of my own personal journey … and yet that which is hard makes the outcome so much sweeter on the other side.

Now, I'm not looking for something so overwhelming that I want to give up, yet I want there to be something to be felt through out the day that I am truly on the lookout for the unexpected, the magic and anticipation that come with something wonderful.

I realize that my perception of a miracle may not align with someone else's interpretation, and that's okay too.  What I want is to continue to believe and anticipate that a miracle is just around the corner.

Yesterday's miracle is not one that I will write about.  It was a situation that I handled with grace, dignity and my head held high.  The miracle is that I have not been able to do that in the past each time I encounter this challenge.  Of course it involves another person, and a pattern of bad behavior on their part.

The miracle is that I not only endured it this time, I thrived in the situation!  And through my ability to center myself, say a prayer and find the place of peace in myself - I progressed through the situation.

Yes, miracles do happen.  It's the looking for them that's the hard part!
