ordinary humanity as an utter miracle. And I was touched by your<br />

sharing around the miracle of just simple humanness; can you<br />

light a fire <strong>with</strong> that? You talk about all these things that are<br />

miraculously human, the ability to grasp time, for example, and<br />

things like that.<br />

LISA CAIRNS: My friend like six or eight months ago told me this<br />

most beautiful quote, and I said in quite a few videos, he said that<br />

most people spend their whole life waiting for a miracle, but what<br />

they fail to realize or don't see that life is the miracle.<br />

WIZARD: Is the miracle, yes.<br />

LISA CAIRNS: Just this is just the miracle. All of it is just<br />

amazing, the fact that we as humans, the story of humans to be<br />

compassion. And feel like I really understand that suffering<br />

dynamic of seeing yourself as a separate entity who is victim to<br />

live, who is victim is it all. But when that falls away…<br />

One thing that happened to me after I had this awakening<br />

experience in the beginning of last year, I was walking down the<br />

street and it was only half an hour after there'd been a big shift,<br />

and there was this dog dying on the side of the road. And before<br />

as I explained to you, this would have been agony for me as a kid,<br />

the way that I dealt <strong>with</strong> seeing suffering wanted to save<br />

everything around me. And so I was walking along and I saw this<br />

dog dying, and it was crying, and its ribs were all sticking out, and<br />
