The world is full of MAGIC things...

The world is full of MAGIC things, patiently waiting 
for our senses to grow sharper.  
W. B. Yeats

Is this why I love my iphone?

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.  
Arthur C. Clarke



MAGIC of creation...

Pure MAGIC is the only way to describe the countless hours and effort and detail that went into this engineering project by our son....

MAGIC for Leeanne


MAGIC is gathering together for Relay for Life and always celebrating our precious health and  remembering those who didn't make it!

A precious piece of MAGIC sent from Jane...


Anything really is possible and anything really is magical - it is all in the way you look at it, interpret it and embrace it!

Perhaps one of my all time favourites...

I wonder if that is why I find it everywhere?

J K Rowling shares a quote...

Thanks to Paula Eskett for sending me this gem!  We do all have MAGIC inside us........

Even Glassons get in on the act...

I was in Christchurch with Pauline when we stopped to take a photo by the Glassons sign!  No sooner had we taken the shot than Helen sent me a photo of the same sign in Auckland - MAGIC eh!
I blogged about two MAGICAL days with Pauline here

Where the MAGIC happens...

I really like this graphic!  MAGIC does happen outside your comfort zone, and it happens when you least expect it, and when you expect it, and it is everywhere... You just have to be open to it............

A new beginning...

For a very long time now I have been using the word MAGIC to refer to things that are special, bring joy to my heart, are outside the expected outcome, and light up my life.  I think I first used the term early last year during my MAGICAL study leave year.  Throughout the year I used it more and more and now the word MAGIC has become synonymous with me!  People send me links to MAGIC moments, I collect MAGIC phrases and for ages I have puzzled how to capture the MAGIC in my world....

Today sees the launch of yet another blog - AK-MAGIC!  I am going to use this as a receptacle for my quotes and phrases and from now will record MAGIC moments in here and so begins the MAGIC journey.....
