Has Anyone Seen The Magic Lately?...Asking For A Friend.

Easter came and I did what I always do… I went hard in the paint. Decorations, activities, the whole festive situation.And when my parents asked why I go so extreme with it, it kind of sent me down a spiral and I landed on a question of my own…Why the hell did we stop doing this?Where did the wonder, the awe, the magic go?Adulting is already hard enough, but somehow we’re expected to drop the one thing that might actually make it feel a little more enjoyable—for the sake of “growing up”?Make that make sense.This isn’t really about holidays. It’s about a mindset. A perspective. That sense of wonder in the small things—the way kids see the world—and how somewhere along the way, we lose it.Maybe life gets in the way.Maybe we’re told it’s not acceptable anymore.But honestly… I don’t buy that.Why can’t being an adult and keeping the magic coexist?Wouldn’t life be a whole lot better if they did?I don’t know. I’m still figuring it out.With a little magic and wonder…So, let’s see how this goes.
