We all spend our time on this planet going about our daily business, dealing with both happiness and sorrow as it comes at us, reacting to whatever comes our way in a manner that is within our grasp. 
   We also spend a great deal of time waiting.
   We wait for our hard work to pay off, waiting for something to happen, waiting for our morning coffee, another chance or, perhaps, even waiting for a miracle. 
   But while we wait, we must continue, one step at a time, making this journey as enjoyable as we can. 
   We cannot simply wait for a miracle or wait for joy and happiness.  
   We must make it happen, for then it truly is a miracle.
