"Each
second we live is a new
and unique moment of the
universe, a moment that
will never be again...
And what do we teach our
children? We teach them
that two and two make
four, and that Paris is
the capital of France.
When will we also teach them what they are? We should say to each of them: Do you know what you are? You are a marvel. You are unique. In all the years that have passed, there has never been another child like you. Your legs, your arms, your clever fingers, the way you move. You may become a Shakespeare, a Michaelangelo, a Beethoven. You have the capacity for anything. Yes, you are a marvel. And when you grow up, can you then harm another who is, like you, a marvel?
You
must work - we must
all work - to make the
world worthy of its
children."
~ Pablo Casals Casals held such language wherever he went. He cried each time he came to the United Nations which he considered to be a great human miracle. In the schools which bear my name the children are told from the first day that each of them is a miracle never to be repeated again. This is why they never fight in these schools, because a miracle does not hurt another miracle. Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume I Chapter 5 The Miracle of Individual Life
I
cannot thank God enough for His
miraculous gift of my eyes through
which the minuscule creature I am
can see the stars, the heavens and
our beautiful Mother Earth! How
lucky we are!

WORD FOR THE
DAY
An act of love that fails is just as much a part of the divine life as an act of love that succeeds, for love is measured by its own fullness, not by its reception.
