There is magic in the air

Yuletide season is once again upon us and there is a coolness everywhere, a kind of magic in the air. I remember when I was young and Christmas seemed to be the time for Christmas carols. This was the magic which I always remember feeling whenever November draws to a close and December is fast on its heels. Christmas carols always did it for me and the feeling is one of awe and wonder, as though it were something much, much bigger than me and that I would one day understand it all.

What would happen if magic were to disappear from our consciousness? If something beyond us and far greater and bigger than us were to become explainable and mundane, if magic were to disappear, what would become of our lives? Would it also cease to be wonderful? I remember feeling a kind of elation, a certain high as I gazed at the water below me, riding a bus home, past the city and all along the coast. I felt liberated, like I had just shed off some unwanted burden. I was not sure what it was but somehow I felt that a new chapter in my life was beginning. Was that magic?

Do you believe in Magic?

They say there is magic in the air or that the moonlight has magic or that a moment is magical. Is this just a way of saying, I don't know how to put it another way? Do we crave magic? Is everyday reality so boring and humdrum and dry that we need to have something magical to happen in our lives? Is magic a way of escaping reality and absolving us of any responsibility for our actions? Miracles are magical. They are something which can only be attributed to a higher force or being. Are miracles magic? Is the supreme being a magician?

I have to do a little bit of magic on the Internet. Cagayan de Oro City has to magically appear on the search pages. This is the magic I would like to see: Cagayan de Oro City on the pages that I search everyday. Why would I want that? If Cagayan de Oro City does not exist on the search pages then Cagayan de Oro City does not exist for many people. There are a lot of people that use the magic of the search engines to find what they are looking for and there are countless others who create websites too. Cagayan de Oro City is magical and should appear on the pages that serve up more magic.

Here they are: Rails brought me to Seaside, Lotto, Yamashita gold, Nothing but FLowers. Lilliput's Flowers.

It is now official, Ching's World is king. It is the number one result for the keywords that spell Ching's World. This is not voodoo but it could be. The magicians of the Net know it is a magical thing. They are the wizards that have made Ching's World king of the world.

There are many items of interest in Ching's World, Visit also Cagayan de Oro City, Cebu City, Moira Trinity, Dumaguete, Papoy.

Wizards of the Internet

The Wizardry of the Internet has led me to Cebu City, where I was born, where I remember a Sto. Nino and art students making watercolor paintings of its ancient walls. Those students were wizards of the brush and watercolor and I watched as images were conjured on blank pages to rise real and colorful before my eyes. Cebu beloved by many.

Dumaguete, City of Gentle People is where my sons go to school in Silliman University. I remember Silliman as being one of the Schools in the Philippines with a Music Department. Like a magical place, Dumaguete is filled with art and music.

Cagayan de Oro City has just celebrated its annual fiesta. Another year has passed and another fiesta will be a-coming. Cagayan is featured in Ching's World. Pages are being added and Ching's World should have more coming.

Wizardry

There is brilliance and there is plain and humdrum. Most lives are plain and humdrum, boring and without flash. We all strain to attain brilliance in our livees even if it is nothing more than reflected illumination such as what the moon has. Still, reflected brilliance lightens up our dark night when nothing else will dispel the gloom.

We all need brilliance and wizardry and flashes even if only coming from a pan. The Philippines needs Ching's World to herald its glorious flash like sun as it is reflected in the waves of the Pacific Ocean where Dumaguete and Cagayan de Oro City lie.

Who's your wizard?

Wizards and toads and witches and avoiding the well-traveled road. These may be nonsense to some and esoteric wisdom to others. They mean very little to me. I guess having a wizard in your pocket might be a handy-dandy thing to have but wouldn't that be a bore? Would a wizard agree to stay in your pocket? I bet he would quickly turn you into a toad at the slightest hint of your intentions. Wizards are not known to be a docile lot. Now, that would not be merely boring but downright inconvenient unless, a princess happened to come along and was so inclined to give you a kiss but, princesses are known to be picky about who they kiss unless they themselves are asleep and must be awakened by a kiss.

So, having a wizard in your pocket turns out to be a lousy idea after all unless you like being a toad and have no wish to be a man and have stupid ideas that could turn you into a horny toad which might be a good thing if a slutty princess happened to pass by and was inclined to kiss a toad on sight, horny or not.

Traveling alone on a lonely road without fortune or fancy can be a boring thing. For one thing, you're on foot and have no clear idea where you are going but you have to keep on the road anyway, because you are not a wizard that can will yourself to places difficult to imagine. Besides, the road is a much better option than braving the rivers and pushing through the thickets and thorny plants tha sting and cut your skin.

The open road is definitely better.
