Living a magical life

Yesterday I stood in the pew of a church.  When I closed my eyes, the physical environment left my perception (almost completely) with the exception of the bench that I leaned against to keep my balance.

I wondered about that experience.  It's not every time that I close my eyes that the physical world disappears so completely.  I really liked that.  I felt I was on to something spiritual.

Deepak Chopra and other teachers, (Bashar) say that the world or physical universe is in us.  I felt I might be having that experience.  When I opened my eyes everything was there, I closed them again, only the bench I was leaning upon was still there.

I believe that life is supposed to be magical.  We get to make what we want out of our lives!  Woo hoo!  The problem is that sometimes we mess it up!  (That's when we have to use phrases, like "hot mess" or "rock bottom" or "crisis" and so on... "drama".  Life is supposed to be like children going to the beach or a sandbox.  Some bring tools (shovels and molds) others arrive without anything so they pick up and mold with their hands (yes, that would be me... no tools!), others lie in the sand immersing themselves into the experience... (not me!). Then when we tire of it, we get up and leave.

This physical life is much more complex than my sandbox analogy and is sometimes challenging to make what I want of it.  I am at a transition point. I am looking forward to change and new beginnings!  I just have to remember how to create my life. I am ready!
