thoughts on magic : mid-year.

(source)

My One Little Word has been fairly quiet this year. It has hung around in the background… occasionally whispering when I needed a mental boost. It hasn't been particularly sparkly & extraordinary, which is okay by me. Magic has shown up in ordinary, everyday sorts of ways.

I was super excited to learn that Elizabeth Gilbert launched a podcast in support of her upcoming book, Big Magic.  I listened to it on the way to work this morning and LOVED every minute of it. Oh, and get this….near the end of the episode, I pulled up being a car with a vanity plate at a red light. The license plate was "GOMAGIC." For reals. (I desperately wanted to take a picture, but hands free, y'all.)

Clearly, I'm thinking about my OLW today. And here's my reminder-to-self – magic is something you make. Sometimes it just happens, but sometimes you have to create it. I revisited my 2015 Intentions list (here) and I'm pretty pleased with how many I've incorporated into my days/weeks I'm pretty certain that the 2nd half of the year is going to be FULL of magic…and it's up to me to make it so. 

Here's to more MAGIC.
