Do You Believe In Magic

Do you believe in magic?
Do you believe wishes come true?
Do you sometimes wish for something
And it magically appears for you?

Do you believe in magic?
Do you sometimes wish on a star?
Do you sometimes look to the heavens 
Wondering just who we are?

Yes it really is magic
To wake up each morn with a song!
Greet each day with a joyful heart
Be happy and glad you belong!

Belong to a glorious land that is free
Free to live and love as you wish!
Free to choose the path that you take 
And thankful for a life filled with bliss!

Lighting the way to the heavens above
On a magical starlit night!
With a big yellow moon shining brightly
It's pure magic and pure delight!

Waking up to a new day is a gift in itself. Why face the day with being sour and grumpy. No, I agree with you Jack - smile and be happy every day you get. Naruren itself is Magic - take the time to enjoy the day. Sorrows will come .......... but do not think of them before they come. oxox love / / Anne-Lise :)
