“And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it.” — Roald Dahl

Do you believe in magic?

I do.

My seven-year-old daughter fully believes in magic. She knows she can influence her reality because she is, as she has told me, very powerful. Sometimes, when I pick her up from school, she will tell me that she was hoping pizza would be on the school lunch menu for the day, and it was. Magic! She tells me, “I was just thinking about you!” when I pop into her room with a snack to hang out for a few minutes. Magic! She’s looking forward to her very first dance recital and told me that she had been really nervous, but after lots of practice and realizing she was more excited than anything else, she is now looking forward to it — pure magic!

These examples might not be giving Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo, but I assure you, there is magic in knowing that you have the power to change your life. I have been on both sides of this belief, and I’m loving the feeling — and the results — of knowing my power.
