Magic and Strength




Todays Wishing Stones words of the day are Magic and Strength. Seems appropriate there is Strength in Magic. So what words of wisdom are there about Magic...So many! Lets keep it simple:


Wayne Dyer (American Psychotherapist) said that "If we are to have magical bodies, we must have magical minds."
As for Strength well I suppose Mignon McLaughlin (American Writer) said it well - "Our strength is often composed of the weakness we're damned if we're going to show."

It is going to be a good day today. Once my "paying gig" is over I head to the Elks Lodge to witness and give a small speech to teenagers who have completed a very hard tough love course. These are young boys who are first time juvenile offenders and instead of doing time they are pretty much shown what would happen to them if they continue on that path. The whole program takes about 6 to 9 months and it teaches the boys everything from life coaching skills to a visit to the morgue and prison. I have met so many nice young men from there who have learned that they have the power to change the course of their lives. Some of these young men are now counselors because they got it! So it is always nice to go and support this group. And sitting with a bunch of teenagers always makes me feel so young too!
So stay strong and believe in the Magic.
