Why do I write for you?


 
Why do I write for you? Good question. I have been trying to figure that out myself. I think the most important question that I would like to ask is why do you visit? I'm currently only a few thousand form hitting my first ten thousand visitors in just a few years. All these visitors and I still have no clue of who you are. I'm sure you know me more then I know you. At times I feel guilty that I should be practicing my magic or working on my next invention. This blog believe it or not is somewhat of my lifeline. It's my outlet, my escape into my imagination.

Do you ever need a escape? I think we all do. Hopefully it's a positive one. I had no idea how much inventing magic can be stressful. At first it was fun and seemed glamorous, but as you get deeper into the business it eventually becomes a job, another effect that I have to research, or find the best execution or move that will compliment the effect. I have to work out every detail, angle, description, technique, magicians to credit and so forth. By doing this it saves you, the buyer of my product time because I have already done the dirty work for you as far as finding the best possible moves, slights for the effect that is most piratical. In essence my inventing has given me the opportunity and motivation to be the best I can both performance wise and explanation wise. Despite all the hard work and having to bother the heck out of Patrick W. I feel at times I ask myself "What the hell am I doing?" I never planned on going this path. It all happened by accident.


This past week I was so stressed out with trying to rewrite a effect that wasn't ready that I literally decided to take a break and not do anything. All I did is sleep, watch tv and then sleep some more. i haven't done that in years.  I got so much sleep that my Sunday morning I woke up from a dead cold sleep. I just sat up wide awake with a headache. Then I saw this light from nowhere pan across the ceiling and stop right above me and vanish. At first I thought it was the newspaper delivery, but I didn't hear any car or see any car headlights outside. At first I was trying to rationalize, but my wife and mother in law have seen these lights as well. My wife said she saw one outside on two different occasions and my mother in law told us that she saw a light in the hallway.



I don't know what to make of it. I try to make sense and not jump to thinking we have ghosts or spirits. I tend to lean more with the energy we put into our lives and how we live with our hearts. Your home kind of becomes you. Have you ever noticed that when you see a house or building that has been abandoned it will quickly looks lonely and starts to fall apart quicker then if someone lived there and they were equally not taking care of the home? I believe our home becomes part of us. I also believe that our imagination plays an important role on our lives.

I think that when we think we start seeing things that it's actually out subconscious telling us and guiding us on our journey. The light I saw for example could very well have been a message for me to lighten up with things and to try not to take things so literal. I'm working on that. It could also mean that I'm on the wite twak. LOL get it? wite twak? okay... never mind.

I'm sorry I went off the topic a little. I was asking you "Why do I write for you?" Well like I said my plan was not to be a magic inventor or even start a blog, but I have somehow been guided this way. Maybe it was that light guiding me and now for some reason I'm finally seeing it. I would only hope that at least one article that you may have read was inspiring or thought provoking. I have no idea if the magic community has been visiting here or if it's just random hits. Do visitors find this blog interesting, inspiring, off the wall, bad horrible, WTF! cool, different. I don't know idea! I just know that my number of visitors keep increasing, yet I know nothing about you or why you visit.

I guess some would say "Just be happy that you're getting visitors" but it would be nice to know a little about you. Otherwise it feels like you're sneaking in my domain and then leaving. "Aint nobody got time for dat"



Anyway I would just like to thank you. Thank you for giving me the inspiration and motivation to continue doing what I'm doing. Thank you for visiting and giving me the imagination of thinking maybe there is someone famous visiting here. Maybe it's David Copperfield or some other famous magician. Maybe it's some movie producer that's looking for that next new super hero concept and they are now saying "He's onto us! we better make a move now before someone else grabs him. Maybe it's a publisher who had been reading everyone of my blog posts and is considering making a book out of them. Geezzzzz I hope they have a good editor. Or maybe you're just like me. Someone who is tying to figure life out. Maybe we share the same light. The light that is trying to guide us and show us that you don't have to have fame and fortune to succeed. All you need is a little light to shine onto others and INSPIRE them to do the same. I would like to invite you to tell me who you are and what you do and why you visit this blog if you wish. Please comment in the comments area. I will not remove any negativity because I believe in free speech. Thanks again!

I do know one thing! I am beginning know who I am. I am the IMAGINATOR! inventor of ideas and magic and I'm glad to be able to see the light.
