Let’s Bring Back the Magic into our lives!

We Boomers, Seniors, and Senior Millennials grew up in a special time when we were FREE to live our dreams… we could safely play outside, and we relied on our imaginations. There was spontaneity, freedom, and creativity in our lives.  But today, life has become too organized, controlled, and imagination has been lost to high tech where we are glued to our phones and computers. This BLOG/PODCAST series focuses on the issues of bringing back the MAGIC that defined our lives. Let’s REMEMBER the MAGIC that we had … and bring it back into our lives.

I waited… then the little animals like the squirrels, chipmunks, and rabbits, would come out to do their daily duties… and I “froze still,” without any movement, so that I could watch them.
