A Strange and Magical Fact

From Anam Cara: A Book of Celtic Wisdom, by John O’Donohue

“It is a strange and magical fact to be here, walking around in a body, to have a whole world within you and a world at your fingertips outside you. It is an immense privilege, and it is incredible that humans manage to forget the miracle of being here.”

Today, let us acknowledge the miracle of being here. The immense privilege of being here. Of having a body. Do we ever acknowledge the privilege of having bodies? And still maintain all these individual worlds within them; it is indeed a miracle.
