Miracles of the Divine

"Don't look for miracles.

You yourself are the miracle."

Henry Miller

THE WOUNDED WARRIOR: CHRION was the title of a class offered by Ruth Souther.  I wasn't sure what material would be covered, but Ruth is a well versed teacher who deeply guides us through our own mysteries.  

During this four week class, I was able to understand the importance of my most devastating life experiences.  Instead of dwelling on the sadness, I was able to recognize the strength it took for me to navigate through misfortune.  While sharing with classmates, they too had their wounds, but it was interesting to learn how we all had survived through differing skills.  

In fact, we were all miraculous.  To recognize our personal magic, we had to shift our perspective and apply deeper understanding.  We had to be willing to break out of the old criticisms in order to highlight the gifts of surviving.  In doing so, we can greet each day with mindfulness that we are truly   miracles of the Divine.
