Magic

Magic is a handy word that serves most people as a catch-all for the unexplained. For others, it is something real, usually feared, and even demonised before it is understood.

If you use “magic” to describe something that inspires awe and wonder, then it is everywhere around if one looks. For me, there is magic in creation, especially in creating beauty, whether in a material form or in a kind act.

If you believe that magic can be real in manipulating people and events, I would not argue that it is impossible, but I know that spiritual laws govern the effects and consequences. It is also not the magic that I am interested in, because exerting outward control, to me, is never the point.  Self-mastery, self-development and love work much better.

The magic I choose to believe in comes from the heart.

Whatever you think you can do or believe you can do, begin it. Action has magic, grace and power in it.
–Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
