The Spell

Not everything is 
going to resonate with 
everyone—and that is 
how it should be.

Magnetism is never 
forced—it just is—
just as love pines 
but never needs to
seek.

There will be wistful 
connections that compel 
your soul and there will 
be times where you are 
simply repelled—
let it be.

It is all part of
the spell.

Duke Beaufort December 4, 2022 at 3:46 PM I love it. How clever to compare magnetism to how we feel about each other. I sometimes watch a Hallmark movie, and the plots have the characters take such time and patience with their feelings. It was something I didn't know how to do when I was young. Wanted to make the world the way I wanted it. You are very wise indeed!! This brings a big smile to my face.
