Living magically

[L. Love]

 

Do you believe in magic?  What is your definition of magic?  A magician at a children’s party…a charlatan conning the people of the old Wild West with their potions and cure-alls?

Did you know it was possible to see REAL magic…to experience it in your everyday life?  Well, I’ll tell you a secret.  It is!

 

How do we find magic or experience it for ourselves?  It is very easy.  We close our eyes and use our imaginations.  That may sound very simplistic to you but you can do it for real.  Most people know about creative visualization and have practiced it in their daily lives.  Maybe the time when you wished you could get to the bank before it closes and all of a sudden the road and traffic clears, you find that parking space and there are no queues.  A miracle?  A coincidence?  Not really, you asked for it to happen, therefore it did.

How many times have you thought about someone only for them to call you on the telephone or drop you a line in a letter?  See, I said it could be that simple.

 

There is a line of thought that if we were created in God’s image then we must also therefore be co-creators.  How can we create anything you may ask?  By wishing for it.  I remember my parents saying to us as kids “Be careful what you ask for as you just might get it”.  Can you remember hearing that as a child or,”Don’t pull that face because you may stay like it”?  I know I do.

 

You see there is a way we can create what we want.  There is a theory that we are all part of a ‘collective conscious’ and as such have access to all the knowledge and information we could possibly need.  To take this thought to another step…if we are all part of this consciousness, wouldn’t it be reasonable to think that our ancestors then would also be part of this too?  Therefore if this were the case, we would have access to all manner of knowledge and tools to live, and I mean really live, to heal ourselves and this world, in fact to become and achieve anything we want to!

 

So what holds us back?  What stops us achieving our full potential?  We do.  Our fears, our old habits, our old belief systems.  How do these hold us back?  Simple.  We get into our little hidey-hole which is safe and cozy and sometimes not the best place to be but its familiar territory.  We feel safer there with all its faults than being outside in the open and the fresh air and the magic.  So what can we do about it?

 

We can decide to try to get out into the light, the sunshine, the open.  Yes, of course it’s scary, especially when we have confined ourselves into such a small place and all our things (emotions etc) fit neatly into all the nooks and crannies but now we have to see the open space, the potential.  That is scary.  Deciding what to do with all that potential while remaining true to who we are and our path.

 

Just my mind meandering as usual.................:)
