On the Subject of Magic
What is 'magic'? Everyone's got an opinion, and they often contradict. Some say magic is the flashy stuff you see in movies; emphasis on movies. Other people say that there's magic, if subtle and mundane, in everyday life; the way the leaves change, the way a flower can grow through the cracks in concrete, the way some people have weird luck in certain things, or certain mundane abilities. There are those who believe that 'magic' lies in sleight of hand, or that it's just another word for 'technology' or 'science', or that it's real but we just haven't discovered or figured it out yet.
