Remember the Magic

Every relationship has a time when it's totally magic.  When your heart pounds and the sound of his voice on the phone, when each morning is greeted with a sense of excitement and a sense that something this good is the real thing and will last forever.  Sometimes it does.  But sometimes it's fleeting.  Personally, I've experienced both, and until not so recently I would have said that I choose the real thing that lasts forever over the fleeting - hands down!  What I've realized lately is that there is really no difference - it's all the same when we remember the magic.  Yeah right, you're saying......tell me that when my heart is broken.  I know, I've been there, too. 

When I do a reading, I focus so much on the feelings we're having or want to have and the energy created by that feeling.  It can be very frustrating to the client I'm reading for, but it's extremely powerful, and it's also a choice.   That is another buzz word.....we don't want to feel that we have chosen this gut wrenching experience, for who in their right mind would choose that, right?  But the flip side of that is, if we chose the magic, didn't we also choose the gut wrenching agony?  And if it is all a matter of choice, why not simply choose the magic, accept it for what it has given us, treasure it, and remember it. 

This applies to so many areas of our lives, whether it's a love lost to another or a love lost to death.  It's still a loss.  The late husband still lives with us because we remember the magic, rather than the pain we endured over the loss.  The lover who was there for just a short time, rather than agonizing over the pain of his leaving, choose to remember that magical feeling that accompanied even that short time. 

We carry the magic with us, casting away the burdens of the pain of the loss, and that magic ignites the light within us, creating even more of the magic, and that's just so lovely!

Thank you, Brigid.  I wanted to add that I really don't mean to over-simplify the issue of loss, but then again, it is a very simple concept.

Dear Schelly:

This is such a lovely way to explain this topic and very insightful.  Thank you for sharing with us today.  Just what I needed to hear as I was reviewing a situation with a client a few nights ago that I was trying to find some answers about.  Blessings to you and thanks again.

Rosie

thanks for all your comments.  It's so easy, especially in a new relationship, to get caught up in all the "what-ifs".  I like to look at it as, if nothing ever comes of this, I at least got a little taste of the magic!  Seems to put things in perspective, at least for me.

Yes, I have experienced the "Magic" and the fleeting is where the difficulties come in. Why can't it just stay magical forever. Then the process starts. Nice posts...Have a Great Day!!! Melody

Sometimes it does, Melody.  And the more of the magic we have "banked", the more we attract.  I know it sounds very guru-ish, and I don't mean for it to.  Simply just take the best and leave the rest, but even in long term relationships and marriages I think we have to remember the magic that we felt in the beginning and it seems to recreate itself.  Make sense?
