"You can become blind by seeing each day as a similar one. Each day is a different one, each day brings a miracle of its own. It's just a matter of paying attention to this miracle."It's a pet peeve of mine when people use the term miracle in reference to everyday occurrences. A miracle, with a biblical understanding, requires divine intervention in the natural order of events. Technically things like sunrises, births, recovering from a cold, and other occurrences that happen on a regular basis, while amazing, are not miracles.
That being said, "you can become blind by seeing each day as a similar one" is rattling around in my head. It's when I assume the possibilities of today are the same as yesterday, and will be the same as tomorrow that I get bored. I can live better than that.
