Magic


What do you think when you hear the word "magic"?  For me the word conjures up good things.  I like to think that all the good things in my life are 'magic' and should be treated as such -- not taking anything for granted.  

Since we all know I'm a 'word junkie' -- I've decided to make "Magic" my word of this new year.  Each day I will reflect on all the magic in my life -- being thankful -- being in the moment -- living a 'magical' life.



The first 'magical' event was a video sent to me by my granddaughter showing my great grandson opening his first year birthday gifts.  Oh how adorable he is and what a gift he is to our family.

The second was the snow that came down and covered everything in beautiful white blankets.

The third was a new-to-me tea, flavored with Chamomile and Lavender.

Just think, more to come!  Yes, magic does exist!!!

  1. Our thoughts are moving in the same direction this year, as they often do. I have another blog friend who has a new baby in the family. The mother set up a private U-Tube account that can only be viewed by invitation. She loads the vids she takes of her kids so everyone she has invited can watch. I thought that was a really cool idea.

    Our weather guy predicted we will get 80" of snow this season and we have had about 10 or so up to now. I hope we will not receive the rest all at one time!! However, we have had rain. I forgot that so it may not be THAT bad.

    Magic is a marvelous word. It conjures up thoughts of wonder and mystic. I love to just SAY magic. It's like, well, magic!

  4. What a wonderful post! I believe in magic, and I believe we all NEED magic.

    One of my favorite magic quotes is from Bertrand Russell:

    "The world is full of magical things patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper."

    I can't wait to hear more about your magical adventures in 2017.

  6. In Northern England, 'magic' is used as a superlative - "Yer blog's magic, lass," - in all senses of the word!

  7. mmmm-that tea looks good-think I'll try it. I think 'Magic' would be a good pets' name too. Maybe a cat. You're right-we need those moments in our lives-back to the wonder of being a child, maybe...
