Miracle is a noun meaning “amazing or wonderful occurrence" and comes from the Latin miraculum, meaning “object of wonder." If you dig way back the word derives from smeiros, meaning "to smile," which is exactly what you do when a miracle happens. (vocabulary.com
)
Just as a smile, Love itself is miraculous. It is the basis for all our human relationships. And yet, sometimes we forget. The constant motion of our minds, chattering on with thoughts, feelings, sensations, and images keeps us from experiencing a quiet mind. The act of remembering to settle into the quiet brings our awareness to Love itself, allowing our breath to connect us with the One, the Beloved. This amazing occurrence of connecting to our True Self only seems extraordinary because we usually fail to pay attention, not giving ourselves this precious time. Yet when we take the time to open up to Love, we become aware of the everyday acts of grace in our lives, the miracles that can dwell in the invisible.
Please consider giving your Self the gift of a few moments of quiet time as your Valentine gift to You. You deserve it!
In joy,
Zet
