ABRACADABRA!!!!!

I am drawn to the supernatural, Bewitched, Twilight (you can stop laughing, I only relate the vampire part, not the lame Bella-Edward-Jake distorted love triangle part; I always skip the uncalled for, lengthy, juvenile love scenes when watching reruns of the movies), Harry Potter (fine, I am childish!!! HAPPY???), Charmed, Angel and World's Scariest Places, to name a few. Which is why my aunt's stories usually fascinate me; stories from an array of real life witchcraft.

The allure of magic is irresistible to me; levitation, telepathy, premonition. Gifts. I think all this lies within my deep subconscious; the need to prove myself. I have lived my life always being overshadowed by the achievers and the notorious. Belonging to neither extreme, no one saw me as being potentially threatening or to own threatening potential. Not a force to be reckoned with with nor a person to be fearfully approached. I wasn't exactly a wallflower all the time having had my occasional moments in the limelight. Until recent times, I have never been taken seriously and I have always wanted to be.

Being much more celebrated then I previously was that yearning for magic has somewhat mellowed down. More or less, I was drawn to spells and enchantments during my adolescence because I would've liked to know that I was special. That even if I could not share my 'talents' with the world, I could at least discreetly make magic happen. I grew up taking comfort in the capability of the audio-visual projections of the idiot box to give me hope so that one day I could also become a witch, a vampire, a telepath, an elf or the very least possess the ability to levitate. 

I am no more condoning of these far-fetched ideas but my take on magic has certainly been clarified. Magic does exist but subtler than what I've known. Even then, I have never lost my fascination for 'abracadabra'...

Who wouldn't fancy being powerful objects of desire!!!????
