Embrace joy
and gratitude.
Miracles happen
because that
is what
miracles do,
and life
unfolds in
unexpected
ways because
that is what
life does.
We add megadoses
of imagination,
hope,
willingness,
faith and
our own
version of
stubborness
Then we work
to accept
the love that
surrounds us
and give thanks
we are not alone.
