AWAKENINGS [1990]


There Is No Such Things As A Simple Miracle


When my son was born healthy, I never asked why. Why was I so lucky? What did I do to deserve this perfect child, this perfect life?
But when he got sick, you can bet I asked why!
I demanded to know why! Why was this happening?
[Mrs. Lowe]

What we do know is that, as the chemical window closed, another awakening took place;
that the human spirit is more powerful than any drug - 
and THAT is what to be nourished: with work, play, friendship, family.
THESE are the things that matter. 
That is what we'd forgotten - the simplest things.
[dr. Malcolm Sayer]
