Sustaining the Magic

He is back into the cycle of magic, having finally met the person he was destined to meet, the one the other destined people had been preparing him for.  Of course, she also feels the magic and if this is like other times they will, in trying to sustain the wonder, undo whatever might have been; and so the despair can return.  Hopefully, he can allow this to be other than magic, and that she can too.  Maybe then reality, with its real and realizable expectations, will have a chance.  The real wonder is the absence of magic, the not needing to sustain who people are in our need.  The wonder is in the quiet and in the permitting each other the freedom to be ordinary people making free and ordinary choices.
