M is

M is for Miracles. The big ones
you read about in the bible, and the little ones that are just as
amazing,
like purple flowers, gay marriages, Christmas lights, shortbread and
cellar
doors. Okay, that last one's a given, but still. Miracles come in
all shapes and sizes, from bone marrow donors to puppies and everything
in between. Miracle is an overused word sometimes, and sometimes people
fail to see the miraculous thinking that they are paying some homage to
a deity they don't even want to believe in simply by taking a minute to
appreciate something that is miraculous by definition because it's
easier
to say "that's a miracle" than to say "wot the hell--?" ie Elvis
Stoiko's
quad, or that kid in the Garth Brooks video. Now don't get me wrong,
I'm
the most cynical bitch I know, but I can only be cynical about the
things
that deserve it, but taking the time to be a wide eyed child when the
situation
warrants it too. Of course, I could go on about Christmas miracles, and
all that stuff, but I'll save it for Adventbunny
(http://www.livejournal.com/users/adventbunny)(shameless
plug) or about Miracle Whip, but that's a whole other eating disorder.
Instead, I'll say that some of my most amazing miracles have come in
the
form of people (and you know who you are) and I will never take the
miracle
that is you all for granted. And since there will be no post next
week, as it's Christmas and all, Happy Christmas, and love to you all!
Cheers!
