So… earlier today, I was watching one of my family’s cats hitting a cord hanging from our blinds for about 10 minutes or so, and I started thinking ‘gee, the danged animal is so darned easily amused’... and then I realized that I’d been staring at a cat playing with a string for ten minutes.

Mark Twain left home at an early age because he’d had enough of dealing with his father. After returning a few years later, he couldn’t believe how much his old man had learned.

“Another man had attempted to do something that he had not even thought of doing; another, less young, less strong and less agile than himself, had succeeded, by sheer skill and patience, in acquiring all the implements he needed for this incredible task, which had failed only because of a failure of measurement; someone else had done all this, so nothing was impossible for Dantes . . . Dantes needed only to be encouraged by an example. Anything that another man had done or could have done Dantes would do.”
—Alexandre Dumas (The Count of Monte Cristo)

Sometimes things aren’t as easy as they seem. Parting the Red Sea, Turning water into whine, or raising someone from the dead are all done within god’s Laws. Crazy Stuff.
This comic made me stop and think about how great miracles really are.
