Protect Your Magic
When I think of magic I often think of light or glitter, something that reflects the sun. In order to have magic, there must be light. In such a way, I think we are a collection of sparks, replicas of the sun and placed with a purpose to cultivate life. We are connected, laced together by our brokenness and dreams.
The stars alight to make known the dark, so that we might see how numerous they are. Without the dark, there would be no need for the light and no place for the stars and the sun to shine. We are woven together for such a purpose: to use our spark and our magic to light up the darkness. We are the light that shines in this world. We are protectors of life. We must learn to take in every broken pane of glass and splintered piece of wood, every bruise and every scabbed knee, every fractured heart and every aching bone. You may be broken and battered, misused and mistreated, but you are magic. Your brokenness does not diminish your light or your purpose.
