> Oh, yeah, magic is what it is alright. I could point to several moments that felt really special, and magical. But I think the big magic was something I only realized completely in retrospect. It built up gradually over time, and eventually I could recognize that I was different and at the same time more truly myself than ever. I was so much freer and happier. Hard times came along, and I handled them fairly well. My life was more aligned with my love, and I could see the parts that still rubbed with a new, more helpful perspective. Truly magic.

You said it so well, Peg. Magic is exactly what I've been experiencing with my new therapist. I would not have believed it if I hadn't
experienced it myself...so perfect and exquisite!! The "knowing" and the connection between us when we're truly present and in the
moment together creates this magic. It seems to happen when I open myself up to feel his support, acceptance, caring, respect, trust
and love. He is a rare compassionate human being who truly cares.

I'm noticing a different self slowly emerging, which feels strange but wonderful at the same time. Wonderful and freer, because what's
emerging feels like my true self. I haven't felt this good in a long time -- precious moments of clarity, well-being, and feeling centered.
I hope the magic I feel with my therapist continues to grow and evolves into magic that I can create by myself...for myself.

Thanks for the lovely thread, workinprogress.
