They say the heart is shaped just like a fist
Holding in its feelings
I say the heart is like an open hand
Holding out and healing
Oh wherever you go – don’t ya know
The world is full of mysteries
Full of magic and of wonder
There’s so much more than what we see
Can’t explain the spell I’m under
Mysterious Ways – Bryan Adams

The world is full of wonder if we open our eyes and heart to see and feel all the magic that is around us.

So many are trapped in their day to day reality of things to do, lists to cross out and plans to make for the future instead of being in the moment, the only moment that is guaranteed to us. They are busy thinking of the next thing to do or all the things that are missing in their life.

The realists, the skeptics, the ones who think they are in control of their lives are amused by the mystics, the romantics, the ones that are one with the Universe, living in the moment, dancing to the tunes that move them.

Magic is in everything you touch; in everything you feel or see… in all your senses. It’s like when you touch or even think about a book that was passed on to you from a loved one, you can feel their energy in the book.

If someone gives you a gift, they transfer their energy and love to you. This whole universe is made up of energy that we can sense and feel if we only bother to pay attention. All you need to do is feel gratitude and sense the energy in the gift as it engulfs your being.

If a loved one is no longer with us, their presence is still always with us because they live on in our memories and in our hearts. It’s the same with people that you feel a connection with, you may only have met them once, but you feel a deep connection and they don’t have to be physically close to you for them to be there with you.

I believe you can have multiple soulmates throughout your lifetime. I believe soulmates come in many forms, they can be a romantic partner, a friend, a teacher, a sibling, someone that you feel a deep connection with. You may not agree with them on everything, but they get you and you get them.

It could even be someone you meet in an elevator or grocery store every so often. You may not know their name but there is a connection. There are some people that you really want to get to know, learn everything about them, the good, the bad and the ugly and accept them just as they are.

Other times, with some people, you are happy just running into them every now and then, having a brief conversation and feeling the connection without needing to know anymore about them.

Surround yourself with people that make you feel good about yourself, who accept you as you are and bring joy to your life just by being in your life. Send out positive vibrations into the universe and feel it coming right back at you.

Life is too short to be unhappy, so focus on the good and remember that the more grateful you are for the things you have in your life, the more things you will get to be grateful for.
