So here we are on Feburary 14th, Valentine's Day in the U.S. and also the Year of the Tiger in this first day of the Chinese New Year. Tomorrow is President's Day and last month was Martin Luther King's Birthday Day, but I was listening to the beautiful song by Sarah McLachlan and was reminded that's it's just another,

"Ordinary Miracle"
It’s not that usual when everything is beautiful
It’s just another ordinary miracle today

The sky knows when its time to snow
You don’t need to teach a seed to grow
It’s just another ordinary miracle today

Life is like a gift they say
Wrapped up for you everyday
Open up and find a way
To give some of your own

Isn’t it remarkable?
Like every time a raindrop falls
It’s just another ordinary miracle today

Birds in winter have their fling
And always make it home by spring
It’s just another ordinary miracle today

When you wake up everyday
Please don’t throw your dreams away
Hold them close to your heart
Cause we are all a part
Of the ordinary miracle

Ordinary miracle
Do you want to see a miracle?

Its seems so exceptional
Things just work out after all
It’s just another ordinary miracle today

The sun comes up and shines so bright
It disappears again at night
It’s just another ordinary miracle today

It’s just another ordinary miracle today

Most Beautiful Cities

More to see and do on my list but I can at least say that I've been to a few such as Paris, Florence San Francisco, and New York. I doubt that in my lifetime I'll get to Sydney or South Africa but in the next ten years, I hope to add Vancouver, and Chicago as well as travel back to Europe.
