It Was A Beautiful Day and Other Personal Quiet Miracle Stories is a collection of powerful, inspirational stories. It captures personal, life-changing moments of redemption from utter despair to radiant hope, of astonishing transmuting of sorrow into joy, agony into a song of thanksgiving. It is a celebration of our sense of the mysterious, which Einstein called the fundamental emotion of true art and true science. In an increasingly skeptical world, amid the rush and roar of technology, these stories echo John O Donahues call to all of us to celebrate the quiet miracles that seek no attention. They are a joyous song in praise of the human capacity to marvel and to wonder.
