I’ve got a story to tell you and make of it as you will.

‘The Wizard’

I believe we all have a ‘Wizard’ in our life, so hold on and let me go a little deeper.

A little boy I knew had his own ‘Wizard’ without realizing it, as we all do. The boy was an unconfident boy, a boy who seemed to struggle in most areas of his life. But as his life began to unfold there was a common theme that began to grow. But what would you define as a ‘Wizard’?

Maybe mythical? or just maybe simple characteristics such as wisdom, strength, support, guidance without judgement?

This boy had the latter, but with out realizing it.

Naturally the ‘Wizard’ had a big role to play in the young boy’s life. All young people only have the wisdom of their years. However the ‘Wizard’ went by life through his greater experience.

But the ‘Wizard’ was in a sense a double edge sword. The boy thought he knew best, as did the ‘Wizard’ which would a create conflict at times. But who was right? Well both and neither.

What? How both and neither?

Well the ‘Wizard’ went through by his past experience, but with that came restrictions with thinking, whereas the boy had fresh ideas but not necessary the experience and learnings to back it up.

As time grow the two began to realise each others areas were equally important and in order to really succeed both had to integrate their thoughts and ideas.

The ‘Wizard’ gave the boy lots of support and love to the boy’s purpose in life. The ‘Wizard’ would talk about a ‘Wizard’ that set him off on his journey. How he integrate learnings from his own ‘Wizard’ but without knowing it he became a ‘Wizard’ in the progress of his life.

And having become the ‘Wizard’ himself he began to teach others and especially the child, who then became an adult. Through that guidance and teaching the now young adult began to help and teach others the best he could with the knowledge he had been given.  He would talk about the ‘Wizard’ to those he taught and then he realised the new theme.

Those who have a special ‘Wizard’ in their life (which I believe we all do) begin to realize and act out their true potential, and also begin to pass knowledge and wisdom to others and in avertedly become a ‘Wizard’ too. The unconfident boy, a boy who seemed to struggle in most areas of his life became his potential and the ‘Wizard’ of his destiny.

Who was the boys ‘Wizard?’ Well I leave that for you decide, but the ‘Wizard’ knows. But what about your ‘Wizard’?

Is it a family member? a friend? a partner? your unconscious mind ? even you?

Be the Wizard of your life.
