Hindsight helps us see the miraculous more easily than the present moment. We venture a trip to the beach and experience the natural world as beautiful with soothing sounds and sand gnats, rip tides, overcrowding, and feet blistered by contact with hot pavement. The 28 Southern writers (Is Australia south?) who contributed stories, vignettes, memories, and poems regale us with events, places, and people to remind subjectively of the wonders of life. Laugh, cry, or embrace the reality and poignancy as each shares an ordinary miracle.
Live your life as if nothing is a miracle or everything is a miracle. Albert Einstein
