Is this the season for miracles? Must they be grand, theatrical, and confined to a calendar?
Perhaps we have been looking for them in the wrong places.
The most profound miracles are not in the parting of seas or the moving of mountains. Those are spectacles, demonstrations of power often told to impress or control. The truest miracles are a state of mind—a shared recognition between people that raises our awareness of each other as worthy, connected beings under the same sun.
The most impressive miracles are those of the heart. They carry no price tag because their value is beyond any coin. They are the currency of our shared humanity.
If you believe you carry a spark of the divine within you—if you feel empathy for the life that surrounds you—then you possess the capacity to be the miracle you wish to see. You can enrich not only your own life but the lives of all you touch.
I do not profess to know all the answers. I am a man with more questions than certainties. But I have learned this: great miracles begin with small, conscious choices. They start with a smile held back too long, a gesture of goodwill offered without expectation. From these tiny seeds, a whole new world of opportunity can grow.
I am talking about the miracles of the heart. The small, daily deeds that add immeasurable quality to the lives around us.
Biologically, we all have a heart—a muscle essential to life. But I speak of the Heart, the core of our common humanity. This is the Heart that brings us together and makes it possible to create miracles every single day. This is the spirit that allows us to feel the joy of connection, not just for a few frenzied days of the year, but as a constant, guiding light.
So, do not wait for a miracle to descend from the heavens.
Be the miracle.
Reach out. Touch another life with gentle understanding and a willingness to listen. Find that miracle in your own Heart, and you will suddenly see it reflected in the eyes of others.
The season for miracles is not December. It is now. And the most powerful one is the one you already carry within you.
