Miracles
"There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle."Albert Einstein.
Is human consciousness not such a miracle? What is this process of vitality and perception that allows us to behold the universe and recognize our place within it? If we can see the greatness and togetherness of what surrounds us, does that not reveal something about what each of us holds within?

Absolutely. Consciousness: The whole seems to be greater than the sum of the parts. How can it, on the one hand, be determined by causal laws and, on the other hand, have what looks like a completely different dynamic all its own? The philosophical explanations (like anomalous monism) fail to explain away the mystery. Will it, so close at hand, always remain unfathomable?
