We live on a blue planet that circles around a ball of fire next to a moon that moves the sea, and you don’t believe in miracles?

The only place to be is in the present, the past is a memory and the future is a dream. People say their call to god or their prayers are going unanswered and lose faith so easily, but how can you expect god or the power to help you if you aren’t home and the door goes unanswered? If you are busy thinking of yesterday or tomorrow you are never really in the present.

Those Who Don't Believe In Magic Will Never Find It

I am not a philosopher or a mystic. I am just a regular girl. And the last few years have been hard – quite hard. But through this time I have understood that it was all necessary for me to be where I am today, and if even one event didn’t go the way it did I wouldn’t have been on this wonderful journey. I had a persistent voice in my head asking me to share my learnings, lessons of my favourite books and quotes that helped me believe in magic. I hope this helps you heal and move to a better place in your life.

Do You Believe in Magic?

It is alright to be sad, as Khalil Gibran said“Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.” You will never understand the importance of happiness, the pure love of the world if you haven’t been in pain. We all need darkness to see the stars and the moon. It was through the difficult times; when I thought it was just about time to give up that I was shown the light at the end of the tunnel. It was times when I thought I had no one, that god sent me angels from whom I have learnt so much. We keep imagining some magical creature with wings to come by and save us, but in reality you cannot see their wings, they are all around us.

“A Warrior of Light knows that he has much to be grateful for. He was helped in his struggle by the angels, celestial forces that placed each thing in its place, thus allowing him to give of his best. That is why, at sunset, he kneels and gives thanks for the protective cloak surrounding him. His companions say “He’s so lucky!” But he knows that ‘luck’ is knowing to look around him and to see where his friends are, because it was through their words that the angels were able to make themselves heard” – The Zahir, Paulo Coelho

The question that arises is how to release yourself from the pain, as you have to at some point or the other. The answer is as simple as when you decide to. I know this is much easier said than done, but at any given point of time there are different vibrations in the world and they are yours to pick from. As Rumi said “The wound is the place where the light enters you”. Only when we choose to relieve ourselves of this pain will be realize that it is our choice at any second which vibration we would want to be on. But to be able to do this you cannot let your mind be your master, you cannot allow it to take over you. What you think is in your control, getting rid of negative thoughts can be done in an instant once you start to use your mind as a tool rather than your master. Unfortunately it isn’t that easy and there is a lot to be done in order to let your mind respect you and become your devotee rather than your master.

There were days where I would feel pangs of fear for no real reason, which made me question all my fears being only in my mind. I would be travelling and I would feel negativity or the devil take over. The devil being my mind… when you are vulnerable your mind can turn into the devil and play tricks which start to slowly fill darkness… that’s when I decided whether life works the way I want it to or not I can’t let this happen to myself. Thankfully my faith in the unknown started to bloom even further, I would be home alone and I would feel dark energies all around me… there were times where I would be scared to look up into the mirror again only to see something behind me.

fearBut that’s when I revolted; I knew the light in me was much brighter than any darkness. I was crying one night due to all the stress in my head; I heard a voice in my head say to me “why are you crying? Things aren’t as bad as you thought they would be” in my head I replied “Why did you give humans this feature if you expect us not to cry? And besides I am trying to release myself from the anxiety”. As you know most of us cry sometimes not out of sadness but just to let things out of the system.

Next morning I woke up and took my normal route to work, once I sat in the cab I realized the driver looked very similar to a man I consider my role model in life. I decided to ditch the theory and thought I was too sleepy or hallucinating. While waiting at a signal a beggar walked up to me. I gave him a decent amount that would at least buy him meals for the day. When I reached office and pulled out my wallet, this familiar looking man says to me “you are a wonderful person madam and I refuse to take money from you” he drove away! Very strange I wondered. The day went exceedingly well, I got home in the evening and spoke to my family… they hadn’t sounded that happy and chirpy in months. I hung up and gave thanks a million times, slowly due to the happiness I cried… for a while till I heard this sarcastic voice in my head say “you can cry out of happiness as well and release yourself from the anxiety, I hope you have your answer on why I gave you this feature of tears. Doesn’t this make you feel better?” From then on, more than there being signs sent to me I became more aware and the universal love slowly started to flow through me. My attention would suddenly be pulled to a sight where there would be graffiti on the wall with quotes like “it’s all written” and every time I would log onto the social media every single quote I would see would seem like it were posted just for me.

  • EXCELLENT ARTICLE!!!!!! Thank you so much. Such truths.
    I was just saying not an hour ago that this world is magical and people need to understand and accept this fact and start playing and experimenting. here’s my small miracle…

    it was my third winter here at the house where i am currently living in nova scotia. this area gets a lot of snow and i was outside attempting to break apart a 4 foot high 25 foot long ice clump at the foot of my driveway. it had rained between blizzards and it was solid! the shovel wasn’t doing a thing, so i went in and got my pick axe and started picking away. on the fourth strike, my pick broke right off the handle! AAAaaarrrgggghjhhhhhh!!! in the months previous, i had learned about the power of intention. i had been trying it out, practicing being positive and grateful every day. THIS day, i was neither positive nor grateful, and as i was struggling to break the ice, i was cursing inside! for god’s sake, i am a woman here trying to do this job alone, while i can barely lift this axe over my head, and why wasn’t anyone stopping to help me, and i bet there are dozens of people on my road with plows and blahblahblah. i was angry, and sick with a cold, but i caught myself!
    aha! you are being neither positive nor grateful! some people do not have arms and they are wishing they were outside in the snow doing this! don’t be a jerk, self! STOP IT! do the best you can! start at the other end where there is only snow, no ice. so i started happily shovelling the non-titanium composite white stuff and saying to myself…”la la la, i am grateful! la la la, thank you for my blessings!”
    not even 5 minutes later, a man on a small, green plow stopped at the end of my driveway. i walked over to him and he said for me to move out of the way, that it was too much for me to handle, and he went to work . even he, with his machine, struggled a bit with the ice, but after 15 minutes or so, he was finished. i had no cash on hand that day, so while he was working i quickly went inside and bagged up some beautiful haddock fillets and some thick-cut pork chops. when he was finished, i walked over with the bags and thanked him profusely. he had done in 15 minutes what might have taken all day. i held out the food, and he refused to take it. i insisted, he said no. i tried to place the bags on the tractor, he said no and “happy new year!” (it was the day after new year’s)
    after he left, i went inside, took off my wet clothes, and burst into tears. i had been a part of something magical and i knew it. i was grateful for the man, but more grateful that i had recognized what a miracle had just happened. i called my husband, who was working away, and cried to him. i am sure he thought i was crazy, but since i told him that story, he has been noticing synchronicities in his own life. for those with eyes to see, as some wise person said…..
    for the record, that had not happened before, or since.
    magic.

    “Those Who Don’t Believe In Magic Will Never Find It”

    That’s dumb. Those who do believe in magic are blind to reality. Todays magic, is tomorrows science. Magic = ignorance of reality and how things work.
