Magic.

Every day something is happening in the world - independent occurrences that do not affect us.
But that doesn't mean it doesn't affect someone else, doesn't change someone's life or isn't an epiphany. Someone on the highway may have saved a cow or someone's sister gave birth to a perfect pair of twins or someone got married or someone lost a limb or someone killed a cow.

The world is filled with miracles, love, and of course, magic. I don't mean fairy dust or wishes coming true - I mean the many people's lives that are capable of being changed for the better. I mean people finding love, and finding themselves when they least expect it. I mean parents and children having something new and exciting to talk about and share as they are growing older, and growing apart. Old friends call each other to tell them about a special event that reminds them of the other, and the list goes on.
Magic.


And when you feel down and trodden and forgotten, remember -
someone out there has probably just murdered some sort of animal and feels like crap,
or think about a new-born baby's first cry somewhere in a hospital halfway across the world.
Think about life,
and how it's not always just about you,
it's about how the world around you makes it for you.





Today, I will appreciate the people who love me.
