The Realm Of Magic
When you live in the kingdom of magic wonderful things come into your life. Part of living in that kingdom is choosing friends that help your creativity. One of the critique groups I belong to is Colorado Dramtists. The synergy that exists when we are workshopping a script is powerful and wonderful. I have also been very lucky in that my family of blood is also my family of choice. I can ask a sibling or daughter for a comment or idea to help me in my writing and I get a creative, support response. Nurture your circles. Participate warmly and wisely. If you have to interact with people who are toxic pour magic elixir on their poison and turn it to your advantage. Ogres and evil villains do try to assault the castle walls in the magical kingdom. That's part of the adventure of living there, deciding how you will vanquish the enemy. You are the sovereign of your realm, but you don't live in it alone. There are other magicians there who will help you with your magic. Be thankful for the time they will take to spark your creativity.

Your circles are your realm of magic. Cherish them
ReplyDeleteI've had the bad luck to come upon a "toxic person" that you mention (but only one, so far -- all others I have encountered have been very supportive and encouraging). You'll have to share the recipe for that magic elixir with the rest of us :).
ReplyDeleteThe most magic elixir you can use is humor and creativity. Laugh at the insults or think how they can inspire your own creative work of art. Another elixir is 'request', it sometimes works. Request they stop annoying or hurting you. That is the first step towards gaining your freedom.
