| Dear Friends: |

| When was the last time you felt the wonder and awe of life? When did you last gasp at the beauty and mystery of it all? When was the last time you looked up at the stars and really took in their majestic vastness? Have you marveled at the crazy magic of how a caterpillar dissolves into bug soup before emerging as a fully formed flight-worthy butterfly? Do you realize that these little creatures don’t just sprout wings? They completely surrender to the full disintegration of all that they were in order to become all that they must. Do you realize you are part of that same magical universe? Do you see that you are as much of a miracle as any marvelous creation on Earth? Do you realize that you have a choice: to see nothing as a miracle or everything as a miracle? I’m here to help you remember that there is so much more than you can see and understand. There is a mystery to how your life unfolds, but the secrets of the mystery are part of the magic. You don’t need to understand or be able to control the mystery in order to trust that the magic is real. Don’t give up five minutes before your miracle.
