It’s fine to believe in magic and miracles, but perilous to rely on them.  Without a solid base of discipline/critical thinking, character, wisdom, and fortitude cease their development.

One could argue it’s a blessing in disguise to not have desirable things “magically”  manifest.

    This reminds me of a Society of Friends reminder: “Pray With Your Feet.” I am a great believer from life long experience that if we show up and put our best effort in…that is when the universe shows up to support us in what can only be described as magic and miraculous ways.
    Great post. Thank you.

    1. No problem! Sometimes we show up and we get crushed. I believe that those instances are kind of a test; if we can find the hidden lesson or benefit in failure, then leverage it into success, it’s a step closer to being able to prosper in times of adversity or luck, and we become a step closer to mastering life.
