"I like to walk alone on the country paths, rice plants and wild grasses on both sides; putting each foot down on the earth in mindfulness, knowing that I walk on the wondrous earth. In such moments, existence is a miraculous and mysterious path. People usually consider 'walking on water' or in 'thin air' a miracle: But I think the real miracle is not to 'walk on water' or in 'thin air;' but to walk on Earth. Everyday we are engaged in a miracle which we don't even recognize: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black curious eyes of a child: our own two eyes. All is a miracle."
~ Thich Nhat Hanh, "Miracle of Mindfulness"
