Do you believe in magic? Have you ever seen real magic, or what some people might call a miracle. . or is magic just a trick of the mind?
Feel free to join in and share your thoughts on this question - find the details here
I find there is magic in a lot of things. Especially in nature and how it works in mysterious ways!
There is the fixed patterns and the laws of nature but the dynamics of the unfolding of life is most miraculous!
Take for instance the simple sprouting of seeds and how they grow into mature, food producing plants.
I love time-lapse photography like this sprouting bean seed
Or the magic as everything comes to life in the spring after hibernating or lying dormant over the cold, snowy winter.
Timpelape of melting snow, buds bursting, flowers blooming plus more...
And the miracle of new born animals and how they begin to find their place in the world.

But the place where I personally experienced a miracle was with the birth of my son!
Being pregnant there was many changes happening in your body but it was mostly just you, then when the new born baby arrives there is a whole new being coming into the world - that truly is a miracle!
I find it amazing too, how nature makes for the strong bonds between mother and child and how it can transforms your very being!
Other relationships are fascinating too, when there is love and the coming together of two beings, that is magic to me!
