a miracle
Tuesday, July 7, 2009 at 8:51PM 
Last night, I heard a rather profound line in the last moments of a movie I was watching. A character to which the audience had not seen for the first two hours and 34 minutes said one of the most meaninful quotes...
"Safety is the greatest risk of all, because safety leaves no room for miracles and miracles are the only sure thing in life. "
I'm still wrapping my brain about what it means, but here's what I have so far...
- Miracles are not contrary to nature, but only contrary to what we know about nature (St. Augustine)
- Miracles occur naturally as expressions of love. The real miracle is the love that inspires them. In this sense everything that comes from love is a miracle (Marianne Williamson).
- Safety is something that happens between your ears, not something you hold in your hands (Jeff Cooper).
So is it is a good thing to be safe? Because the more safe you are, the less likely a miracle will find its way to your situation. Right? But does one need a miracle if they are really safe?
You see my dilemma? Boom boom goes the fireworks in my head.
