~ Everything ~

“There is never nothing going on.
There are no ordinary moments.”

-Peaceful Warrior

Somedays, I just feel like the minutes are ticking away - everything is the same again as it was yesterday, kind of like the movie: Groundhog Day.  Waking up the same time every morning - making breakfast - packing lunches - hurrying kids along to school.  Then what? . . . oh ya - unloading/loading the dishes.  A load or two of laundry, walking the dog, etc. etc. etc.

When the above quote found me a couple of years ago - and then again echoing within the archives of my brain this morning - I thought: "Yes!  This is true . . . it is ME that needs to open my eyes to the "no ordinary moments" and remember that every single second - something - everything -  IS going on!"  Even while I'm going thru my daily motions, feeling like it's just another day like the one before - there still is something going on.  No moment is ordinary - no matter what.  What an eye opener it is for me to know this.  It's like a breath of fresh air into repetitive reality. 

Here's to really seeing the "no ordinary moments" today - and open your eyes - w i d e - to all the little tiny miracles happening all around us all the time.  I love this quote by Albert Einstein:

"There are only two ways to live your life.
One is as though nothing is a miracle.
The other is as though everything is a miracle."

Enjoy your day today. Open your heart and eyes to new discoveries in your moments today.  They are there, you just need to look.
