This past weekend, my six-year-old granddaughter and I performed a magic show for family members using some of the magic tricks we bought a couple of weeks ago at a magic shop in Brown County.
While we did practice, the tricks didn't exactly always go as planned. In fact, several of the tricks were accidentally revealed during the performance. We tried to cover them up as quickly as possible, but the illusion was gone.
At one point, my daughter just laughed and said in a hypnotic voice, "Erase your mind. Erase your mind." The trick went on and we still got an applause.
Later, when little Annabeth made another reveal, she took a cue from her Mom and immediately told the audience, "Erase your mind. Erase your mind." We all laughed and the magic continued.
"Erase your mind." That's actually magical advice. Though it's important to learn from our mistakes, it doesn't do any good to be faithful to a mistake. Our past mistakes are only feedbacks that are there to help us alter our DIRECTION to get you to your destination.
Mistake? Remember: The big show of life must go on. It's magic!
Ta-Dah!
