About this listen
Regina Brett, author of the New York Times best-selling God Never Blinks: 50 Lessons for Life's Little Detours offers inspiring stories about the decisions we make and how our choices can make the impossible possible.
Want to live your dreams - or even surpass them? Want the world to change for the better? Want to see a miracle? What are we waiting for? Why not be the miracle?
That's the challenge Regina Brett sets forth in Be the Miracle.
To be a miracle doesn't necessarily mean tackling problems across the globe. It means making a difference, believing change is possible, even in your own living room, cubicle, neighborhood, or family.
Through a collection of inspirational essays, Regina shares lessons that will help people make a difference in the world around them. The lessons come from Regina's life experience and from the lives of others, especially those she has met in her 24 years as a journalist. Each section is a lesson that can stand alone, but together they form a handbook for seeing the miracle of change everywhere.
With upbeat lessons from "do your best and forget the rest" to "sometimes it's enough to make one person happy", these lessons will help you accept and embrace yourself, challenge and change yourself, and better serve others.

Don't let the title fool you. This isn't a book about high fiving everyone else in your life. You're already doing that. Cheering for your favorite teams. Celebrating your friends. Supporting the people you love as they go after what they want in life. Imagine if you gave that same love and encouragement to yourself. Or even better, you made it a daily habit. You'd be unstoppable. In this book, Mel teaches you how to start high fiving the most important person in your life, the one who is staring back at you in the mirror: YOURSELF.

Even the crustiest old Alaskan sourpuss who died in a one-room cabin always had Halloween candy for the neighborhood kids, and the eccentric owner of the seafood store who regularly warned her about government conspiracies knew how to be a true friend - his memorial service was packed.
