Some people think miracles have to be big
They don’t have to be something huge
I believe they can be very small
If you look around, you will find them
A miracle is walking past someone
Whom you have never met or seen before
And your eyes meet theirs
And that person smiles at you
A miracle is as simple as breathing
And In and out the air goes
The most amazing thing about it is
We don’t have to think about it
A miracle is just opening your eyes waking up
Bright and early in the morning,
And while you are eating or bathing
You find yourself in your own body
And in stressful times, a miracle is a friend
Who is willing to help you when you are in need,
Whether you need help in homework
Or just a friend to talk to and listen to them
A miracle is a mother saying “No!” to something
If it’s going out with friend or just leaving the house
She is doing everything she can to protect the child
From any harm from the harsh and cruel world
A miracle is just sitting there and listening
To a friend or a friendly neighbor,
And when it’s really quiet and everything still
You could hear a beautiful song in the wind
A miracle is looking to yourself for comfort
And hugging yourself for no good reason
Tell yourself that you are a beautiful person
And finally loving yourself for who you really are
A miracle is thanking God that you are alive every day
Not only on your best day, but on your worst days too
“You only live once; make the most of it,” the saying goes
And one of these days, you will go to a new life.
A miracle is looking out in the crowd
And find a person who acts different from everyone else
Or wears clothes that are “strange” or “weird”
And finally finding a person who stands out
A miracle is seeing someone trying to impact a life
Not necessarily putting your life on the risk
But helping people, making a difference in someone’s life
Or if you can’t suceed, to at least try to do something
A miracle is when everyone else is telling lies
And someone in the crowd speaks out against it
And you find out by accident that it’s the truth
The person being that one voice for the truth
A miracle is not finally finding the man of your dreams
It’s not kissing someone or flaunting what you have
It’s not trying to “fit in” or being popular in school
I hope you see that it’s so much more than that
To see them brings joy and happiness to my world
And I encourage you to try to find them
And see if they bring happiness to your world
I want to tell you one more little thing
I love and live for these little miracles!
