Creating Magic In Your Life
“ Believe in your heart that you're meant to live a life full of passion, purpose, magic and miracles.”
~Roy T. Bennett
I hear people talking about looking forward to 2021. They are sick of 2020, some literally, and they want to move on.
Now I don't know about you, but I've yet to get the memo that says the end of the calendar year will bring the end of the Covid cluster.
There are no guarantees that the start of the new year will start pandemic free living. It is our hope, though, which gives us something to look forward to.
But for now, we live in limbo. It's like daylight savings time when it comes to an end. We will look at our watches and say, "It's 3:15, well actually, it's 4:15, but we just turned back the clocks." That nonsense goes on for a week or two until we settle into what is.
Today we are comparing life from Before Covid (BC) to life After Covid (AC). It's hard to reconcile all the changes and losses. It weighs heavily on our shoulders.
So it is up to us to throw off the mantle of what is, and start to create some new magic in our lives. For if not us, then who will create something new that lights up our hearts? We need some magic, and we need it now!
"Magic exists. Who can doubt it when there are rainbows and wildflowers, the music of the wind, and the silence of the stars? Anyone who has loved has been touched by Magic. It is such a simple and such an extraordinary part of the lives we live."― Nora Roberts
What have you done lately to bring magic back into your life? The above quote alludes to marvels of nature to spark some magic in our lives. Get out and rake the leaves in the magical sunlight of Autumn. Have a little fire in the chiminea on the patio tonight and smell the wood smoke as you listen to the breeze ruffle the leaves in the trees. I bought a hammock and tied it between two trees to lure my teen out of the dungeon of his room. He's still watching Netflix, but at least now he does it out in nature. That in itself is magic!
"For me, there is very little difference between Magic and art. To me, the ultimate act of magic is to create something from nothing: It's like when the stage magician pulls the rabbit from the hat." – Alan Moore
If you want to stir up some magic in your life, take on a passion project. Something that unleashes your creative talents. I carried an old side table out to the patio last week. I stripped off the old finish and used chalk paint on some of it and restained the rest. There is something about doing a creative activity that gets all your juices flowing. It was great fun, and I like the end result.
"And where does magic come from? I think that Magic's in the learning." – Dar Williams
Learning something new is always magical. Learning opens the door for possibilities and unique experiences. With Covid, almost all teaching is online. There are abundant possibilities and options to choose from. Who knows? Something new that you choose to learn about from your home could lead to your next big thing. There simply are no excuses now; pick something new to study!
"Magic is believing in yourself. If you can do that, you can make anything happen."― Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Ah yes, the magic of believing in ourselves will lead us to the joy we seek in this lifetime. It's easy in this time of anxiety and uncertainty to stop believing. There is just so much uncertainty. However, by believing in ourselves, we unleash the power to create the magic we need in our lives.
