- I must agree that would be true. I didn't think about that before,

- As I do believe in the fact that every think you do to others falls
- back on you at least threefold, I cannot say that black magic(k)
- would be good for me. I wouldn't like anything or anyone take energies
- from me when I wasn't willing.

- I think that would be correct. Excuse my rather brief answer, but I'm
- in a kind of hurry, and that's the last time I have Internet access
- this year (next time I'm online is January, the 4th).

-
- This is my wish as well. Let us share our thoughts and knowledge so
- that everyone can grow. Only shared knowledge can be really fruitful.
- (Oh my does that sound dramatical - but I really do mean it!)
-
- D> I think our langauge is an important tool for use in magic.
-
- I agree. Of course you have too choose carefully what to say when you
- are working with magic(k), because words carry ideas, and ideas can
- shape our reality (in my opinion).
-
- But I didn't want to limit the idea of magic(k) by trying
- to confine it in too narrow a description.
-
- D> Thank you for your input. I look forward to continuing this
- D> discussion with you.
-
- As I do. I'm looking forward to your next postings!

- Walk in the Light!
