The miracle is not to walk on water. The miracle is to walk on the green earth in the present moment, to appreciate the peace and beauty that are available now.
– Thich Nhat Hanh, Touching Peace
Stop. What are you doing right now? Take a couple of breaths and feel the air moving in and out of your body. Look around you. Try to be fully present and aware for the next few moments. That, my friends, is the simple miracle of mindfulness.
Lather, rinse and repeat often!
