Thanksgiving 2011

No doubt 2011 shall be remembered as the most thankful of all Thanksgiving...so far.  This year has been tumultuous, passion-filled, and best of all, eye-opening.

We live in a world of magic, but only now do I see it.  V.A. used to tell me if Hogwarts were a real school, she would drop everything and become its first student.  She didn't know her wish was within her grasp her whole life.  J.K. Rowling knows this too.  The fictional world of Harry Potter is not so far-off from the real magic that each of us can command.  We only need to believe.

Each of us can cast spells over others, conjures never-seen-before creations from nothing, or stays young forever.  Our potential is limitless.  In our real magical world, you don't need to be born into a family of wizards and witches to have powers.  You only need to believe.

The path that has led me up to this point in my life has recently turned vertical and accelerated to supersonic speed.  It is like when Harry Potter first heard that he was actually a wizard.  An entire world hidden from him previously was suddenly revealed to him.  I still need lots of training before I can control this power, of course, but at least now I know real magic exists.

Everyone of us have this privilege, but getting to this point will be unique for each of us.  My path was guided by faith, the Holy Spirit, and love.  Yours may comprise of different ingredients or the same ingredients but in different proportions.  Whichever be the case, you have to believe it wholeheartedly before you can get that invitation to attend Hogwarts.
