The Twelve Days of Miracles - Day Nine

"One thing to remember is that we all contribute to the well being of one another and the planet.  Making wishes, using our dreams, our inspirations and hopes for the future always contribute to the all of everything that exists.  In union with everything that surrounds us we experience that which is called "samadhi."  That union is what we should all strive to achieve because it is there that you will soar to new heights and be able to transcend any difficult situation.


The miracle for today is that seeing and believing are one thing,  but doing is quite another.  When you look at a tree you can see the trunk and it's leaves,  You believe that it is there.  But what you don't see is the true miracle of the tree.  The energy that surrounds it, it's roots, its existence on the earth for sometimes hundreds of years.  We are like trees.  We have roots, energy that surrounds us, and some of us, yes, have been here for years.  What is it then that we can learn from this?  Is it our consciousness expanding to a level that we can see ourselves not only in one another but in a tree as well?  Or is it the miracle of knowing that we are not only connected to one another but to everything that exists around us as well?  


Contributing to the all of everything is what this is about.  Our miracles are most often those things we ourselves help create.  When we don't know this ourselves, we only have to look around us to be reminded that it is already present in our world.  The tree, its roots, you and your roots, have taken you this far in your life.  The next step is yours."
