Listening to old songs in my head - "when you close your eyes do you see.....Its not half as magic as it seems, but its so much fun to be there." Sometimes you just have to love Carly Simon - or not. Listening to the song that keeps rolling through my mind and thinking of the daydreams that just won't form today.
It is always much more fun when you can close your eyes and bring that little bit of magic into focus. Fun, even when you know that being there would not be half as magic as the dream. But it does kind of blow when you lose that place inside yourself where the daydreams are and the magic just seems to have dissapated (probably should check the spelling on that).
So when you close your eyes, what do you see? Do you see the magic of your dreams? Can you float seamlessly through the scene? Touch, taste and hear the wonders that it brings? Or are you grounded to the here and now? Are you left with just fragments of your capacity to dream? Standing on the cusp of that unreality that gives you a secret little smile.
I feel as if I am just a breath away from capturing that internal magic. If only I can exhale enough of this day, it just might be possible to breathe in the magic I have (pray temporarily)lost.
Then I can close my eyes and see what I will see. And while it may only be half as magic as it seems........it is always fun to be there. And that is the point of daydreams and imagination, isn't it?
