I Believe In Magic. You Should, too.

Each of us and our lives are governed by a simple need. The need to eliminate the line of difference between what we have and what we want. Putting in another similar sense of approach to it, I'd say, the line of difference between reality and fantasy. Fantasy isn't something that is only associated with the Disney stories and the movies that portray happy-endings. All of us who have a mind, a soul and that 'muscle that pumps blood throughout the body by repeated, rhythmic contractions'; basically all of us who are alive and breathing should have fantasies, dreams and desires of our own, irrespective of how easy or hard it is to achieve them. Nothing should stop us from having them, in the first place. 

Sometimes, I just find myself sitting by the window, watching the clouds move incessantly and wondering what I'm here for. What all of us are here for. The point of our existence.

And now, to think of it, I realize that the whole point of our existence is filling in that gap. The gap between our hardest reality and craziest desires. Some of us have almost filled that in already. Some of us have just started. And some more of us, actually a very significant number of us, are getting there, yet to draw that line, yet to establish the end point. There is no particular period in our life by which we have to accomplish this. We can take all the sweet time we want. The biggest catalyst or hindrance when we set out to fill this gap is our mindset. It's okay to not have the exact crystal clear image of those dreams in our minds. We shouldn't, either. Who doesn't like those little surprises of realizations? The journey from one end of the line to the other is all about the excitement of figuring things out.

Go ahead, make yourself available in your dreamworld. There may or may not exist any such thing as fate, or destiny; because mostly, it's the choices we make, isn't it? But there is serendipity. It's such a beautiful thing, when it happens. Be patient. Believe in that element of serendipity.
