Find the Magic. Be the Magic.



         Finding magic in your own life is entirely up to your perspective. For me I find magic in the simplicities that surround me. Many of my simplicities are the people and settings in which I often spend time in. For example each morning my one roommate makes coffee that we both sit and drink before we head out for our busy days. During this 20 minutes or so we talk and catch up on that which we haven't been able to share because of our busy and opposite schedules this semester. I find this to be one of the most enjoyable times of my day just sitting with one of my best friends drinking coffee. Its rather simple. To me spending time with people that I love and care about is magical.
         I love the magic of a quiet moment to sit and write with tea. A moment to take in all that is going on in life and celebrate all that I am blessed with. I love turning on some soft and quiet music and just writing or reading. My cup of tea in hand and my blinds open for sunlight to pour into my room. There is such a peace and a magical feeling that comes over me when I have that space and time. It isn't anything unattainable or special as we often perceive magic but rather a simple moment in my life to enjoy each portion of the moment and of myself. Magic is everywhere.
         Another example of the magic I find in my life is the places I visit or spend time in. Just last night I was walking across campus taking in all of the beautiful scenery and space that my campus has to offer. I am so blessed to have a beautiful campus that is kept so clean and beautiful. It is magical to feel at home and be surrounded by nature. I just stood for a moment admired it and took in a deep breath of crisp fall air. I will never have another October as a student here at LVC so I am trying to take in each moment, each memory, and the magic I feel surrounding me here on campus. There is magic everywhere.
         I found magic in so many places in my life. The magic of people, places, the smell of home, the beautiful nature, and the laughter of people you love. Magic is all up to you. What do you find magical and how do you perceive the many things you encounter each day.

 Enjoy the magic and find your own magic. What could it be?

A Special Place

It has been way to long since I have written. My senior year has taken over my life! Since I last wrote school has started and Senior year is going much better than Junior year ever did. I love my classes that I am taking of course with exceptions here or there and I am just so thrilled it is my senior year I think I will be able to look past any negative situation in some positive form. Marching band and School are taking up all my free time. There is no time to be messing around, I am at school, doing homework, at a rehearsal, lesson or practicing it seems. So to take a break from the crazy month that it has been my family and I are going to be traveling to our favorite place! We will be spending the weekend in Vermont. There are so many memories there with my family and I feel like a part of me grew up there. Every winter my family would travel up there to ski until skiing became impossible for my family. With Dad having Alpha one of the things he truly loved to do has been taken aw...

Day 11- A Picture of your Best Friend Since I will be away this weekend I have decided that I will post for the next two days awhile! My Mom and I! My best friend in the whole world is my Mom! No matter what life brings shes always the one there helping me to get through it! I can tell her everything!! She always puts me first and always is there for me!! I look up to her everyday! Love you mom! "A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts." ~Washington Irving

For Nothing is Impossible with God!- Luke 1:37

"You are exactly where God wants you to be at   this very moment. Every Experience is part of   his divine plan." This quote has hit home with me the last few days. Its words speak to me. There are so many days when I question why things are happening in my life or why things can't just work out a little bit easier but this quote reminds me that they are working out a little bit easier then I like to think they are. It reminds me that everything I do and all the experiences I go through are part of a bigger plan and a bigger picture. Some experiences I never question because they are fun and don't bring me any emotional upset or pain. It's when the difficult experiences come that I begin to forget this quote. I begin to forget what my life really is about. It is not just that bad experience that defines me. There is so much more that defines me and my life. I am defined by the way I react to the situations rather than by the situations themselves. ...
