Magic
As we grow, we are encouraged to believe, and as we believe, peculiar things happen
Our perceptions of the world change around us
Legends foster, epics build and lore is born
Wonder begets and precedes all. Then we grow up
For whatever reason, be it betrayal, loss, or monotony, we become disillusioned to thе truth of reality and fall into a rut of conventional thinking
But the lеgends of childhood never die

We forget that every minute of life is a mysterious, wonderful and fulfilling surprise, while the stories of yesterday echo into the future
Life becomes dull, transitions to the mundane, then festers into torture, but still we sit, as conquerors, delivering our life messages to the masses
I have discovered that learning to suspend disbelief in the impossible is the precursor to the unbelievable and the key to living a fulfilling, predictable, and rewarding, happy life

I have also discovered, as I’ve aged, that magic is real and working masterfully inside of the world we love and know
The key to living the life one wants to live is learning to harness your God-given ability to mold reality and manifest your hearts’ great desires, or at least to be deluded enough to believe it’s possible
My grandfather imparted this great knowledge upon me at a young age through our dealings with the Bible
I learned to hone the knowledge as a pen, and have written a beautiful life story by design using the supernatural aide imparted through this book

I have suffered and I have persevered. I have lived as an example to others, both as what to be, and what not to be
Some artists produce physical pieces of art. Others produce music
I produce life-art
I am the painter and my life is the canvas

My emotions are the paint and my soul is the magic that puts the piece together – that certain something you can’t put your finger on it, but whatever it is, it’s what drew you to the painting to begin with; you can’t see it and you can’t feel it, but you know it’s there
This is the story of my life. The story of how I made my piece of art

This book is my battle cry
