Magical Reality
Children are born inquisitive, and it is this curiosity that allows them to learn more about the world through every experience and social interaction. Sometime back my kid started asking me questions which i did not have answers to. Her WHY's seemed to be never ending. And then i set out to find out so to raise myself to be able to answer her curious mind.
Reality is something that exists and can be justified through your five senses. But then you might be thinking what about emotions - anger, happiness, love i do feel them. Yes, they are real and they are experienced through your conscious mind.
The word Magical can be related to pure magic, the moment which was to die for, goosebumps listening to a performance, breathless that makes us come alive.
And why am i relating these two words is to give the sense of magic of evolution. Nothing came into existence all of a sudden, it was a gradual progression of complex organisms through scientific process as explained by Charles Darwin.
Do i still want to answer my kid on does the fairy exist, or why a pumpkin got transformed to a prince charming. Absolutely Not! Reality is remotely near to magical but still it's good to encourage imagination. With this imagination they can spread their wings and embrace the world. Imagination is an elixir of life and kids need to be given the bigger canvas for creativity. This could as well bring you to life all over again.
So let me touch upon some basic why’s here....
Who was the first person on earth? We have heard quite a bit of interesting stories around Adam and Eve. But there never was a first person, it was all a gradual change step by step through time process bringing a big change. If you count for million generations prior, what we turned out today could have started from our ancestor being a fish. The fossils, mutations, the DNA all are scientific explanations to many of our existence. How did everything really begin? Matter, energy, time and space came into being in what is known as big bang theory.
Why do we have day, night , summer , winter? This is the rhythmic change. The daily rhythm is earths spinning round and round like a top and seasonal rhythm is yearly orbiting of the earth around the sun.What we see is only the relative movement.These are alternating rhythms that rule our lives.
Are we really Alone? Let’s expand our imagination to think that there could be life on other planets. Possible that on the other planet the radiant energy ranges from radio waves to X ray. Even though we have not discovered life on other planet yet with science we seek for sensible questions and credible answers and this kind of research would keep our imaginations in line with fantasy.
Point is not for me to start explaining all these why’s but to encourage that in all of us. Because sometimes there aren’t really answers to our questions except for what we discover, the meaning we assign them over time. Also because knowledge meets an end at the question why?
With time we as adults forget to ask WHY probably because we stop to bother, and fear that the answer might not be what we want to hear. How much of what is there do you really allow yourself to see.
Also I am not saying miracles do not happen, it does when one rare occasion you get a perfect deal. . It does but the probability is minuscule. So let’s put our faith in our hands to embrace reality and be part of it.
You ought to remember why you started but then if you have lost track
Do not forget to ask yourself
What's your WHY!
