Einstein and Miracles

Most are in a box at the lake house, but there are mornings these pictures become mixed with my dreams in a surreal kind of way.  It was the early 50’s and I could hear my mother calling as my babysitter and I crawl out of the foxhole.  When we get to the top, she brushes the dirt from my clothes, takes my hand and we turn toward my mother’s voice.  Was this a memory from my first years of life on Tachikawa Airbase Japan, or a reminder from deep inside not too stay in the foxholes of gloom too long.  It’s a choice we all have every day.  Einstein said, you can live as though nothing is a miracle, or as though everything is a miracle. I can’t wait to see the next miracle happen today, how about you?
