IS REALITY MIRACULOUS OR
ORDINARY?
Yes, it
is true, as Albert Einstein said, you can live your life as if everything
is a miracle, or as if everything is ordinary.
It is
also true, as Niels Bohr said, that the opposite of an ordinary truth is
a falsity, but the opposite of a profound truth may also be another profound
truth!
Now, recall
that in Hamlet, William Shakespeare said: “There is nothing either good
or bad, but thinking makes it so.”
From
these three quotes from three famously wise people, I have to conclude that I may choose to experience reality as very common
and ordinary, or as divinely miraculous, and this choice can yield one of two profoundly
different results: either the experience of misery and boredom, or joy and ecstasy!
