Miracles Of Life

Everyone gets excited by the extraordinary. We seek something exciting, something out of the world, something miraculous. 

The ordinary seems so mundane. 

Yet if you settle down internally, just enjoying being in the moment, you will have a growing appreciation for life’s basic experiences.

The pleasures of simple friendship, creating something, helping a person in need, reading a good book, laughing with someone you care about. Still sounds boring? That’s because these things are ordinary. But maybe they’re ordinary for a reason: because they are what actually matters.

One day, you'll realize that these little joys are what actually matter. That's when that constant pressure to be something amazing, to be the next big thing, will be lifted off your back.

The stress and anxiety of always feeling inadequate and constantly needing to prove yourself will disappear. And the knowledge and acceptance of your own mundane existence will actually free you to accomplish what you truly wish to accomplish, without judgment or lofty expectations.

Not saying that you'll stop working or cease to strive for the achievable goals in life. They keep us focused and moving. 

But along the side, whilst climbing the mountain, better enjoy the scenery and the little pleasures along the journey. The simple enjoyable moments are the true miracles of life.
