Miracles were false. In a world that was plagued by lies and death, a miracle no matter how appealing it may was shit rolled in sugar. And this woman obviously did not believe in them. As friends, family and strangers on the street often sung about a miracle that happened to them. But much to her chagrin – it never happened for her. This meant she oddly feel left out and thus hated this word and its falsities. After all religions and culture made people believe that a 'miracle' will happen for everyone and everything. These proclamations were especially popular when Madara came into power forcing the country lords and the ninja leaders to bow to him. That it was a miracle that they were not obliterated (maybe instead of saying it was a miracle, perhaps the mysterious man was feeling benevolent.), that it was a miracle the majority of the fighting between countries, people and ethnicity stopped because of him. (He just had enough power from the bijuu to cow them in to submission which inadvertently caused peace). What wasn't considered to be a miracle – especially by political officials (not by bachelorettes of all ages) was his lack of marriage or a consistent relationship with a woman.

Often times the pink haired woman would have a good laugh as his expense as 'gold diggers' came belly up his bar and the politicians would complain amply that Madara found no one to settle the social needs. This issue was oft brought up in the Hospital where Sakura tended to sequester herself after Naruto's death and Sasuke's flippant return. Many nurses joked that they should live the miracle of being chosen by the new super leader. But this was only a joke that was quite honestly hoped for in secret. After all who wouldn't want to be on the arm of some one so powerful? But it would be a miracle for a civilian doctor or nurse to be even considered by him. But that is what they all believed in right? Miracles. Ones that fell from the sky, ones that granted all wishes (with a hidden price). Something to ease the pains of a boring life, to cover up the past and how the present came to be. Miracles were like Children s make up sets in Sakura's eyes – cheap, and often times terrible in quality.

But they gave something to people – hope even if it wasn't honest.
