Expect Miracles

Why not? Why not expect miracles? Why not open yourself to the absolute possibility of wonderful, amazing, miraculous?

There are lots of reasons why not (fear, fear of the unknown, fear of change, fear of success, fear of new, fear) but why not trust yourself with the ability to deal with whatever happens. In point of fact, you WILL deal with whatever happens, that is the nature of life, why not trust yourself to do it.

I met a woman once who had raised 4 children on her own. We met on a shuttle to the airport and she noticed me with my son. When we got to talking she said there was only one thing she regretted in her past, just one. While she was young and a single mother of 4 girls, she always said to herself, "it's too much, I can't do it," and that was the one thing she said she would change if she could go back. She wouldn't say it, because of course she could do it, and she did.

We do this to ourselves all the time, shortsell ourselves, convince ourselves it's all too much and that we can't do things. With change this is particularly common; people say all the time that they can't change this or that, or they wouldn't be able to handle this thing or the other. But, point in fact, we are constantly changing, all the time.

Miracles happen all the time too, but we say, "no that can't be true," or we forget to notice. You should expect miracles. Believe the best, reach for the highest, know in your heart that miracles happen and you are as deserving of a miracle as the person you have put on a pedastal. Raise yourself up to the height of deserving miracles and they will surely come.

Blessings.
