(Booth Tarkington)
Fun, laughter, giggles, moments of joy! Who doesn’t want more of this in our everyday lives? Magic Moments boxes are one fabulous way to give the gift of JOY to both yourself as well as to the person you are sending a Magic Moments box to.
It all began as an exchange and has grown into an exquisite experience. It began with two women living half a world away from one another. It began with two different cultures meeting and melding. It began with east meets west. It began with Yin-Yang.
Magic Moments boxes take on a life of their own as they grow and evolve. They are such fun to create that both the giver and the receiver fill their day with moments of anticipation and joy when they stop for a moment and reflect on the Magic Moments box. Similarly, this book has taken on a life of its own. While Priya and I thought we were going to write a book just about Magical Moments boxes, instead we find our book has evolved to show you how to create magic in your personal life. The Magic Moments Box is just one tool to get there.
Magic Moments boxes aren’t ordinary boxes. No, they truly are filled with the magic of the person’s energy. We discovered it’s not the contents as much as that magic of anticipation, the magic of delight, the magic of laughter. These things truly count the most. Those Magical Moments are what fill the empty spaces of our daily lives so that we are living with moments of joy and happiness each and every day.
It’s the rainbow magic that is colorful and beautiful. Why you ask? Simply because of the sense of caring and belonging that gets packed inside those empty spaces of each Magic Moments box. We all need to belong to a tribe. One of our tribal sisters has taken time from her busy day to include us in her tribe. She has added her spirit in each space of that box. It’s the magic of that spirit sharing that truly counts the most.
The Magic Moments box becomes a symbol of love. It becomes a symbol of caring. It becomes a symbol of emotional bonding. It becomes a symbol of the Yaya sisterhood! We are all related as women. We women feel common things such as love of our families and the pain that love can bring. This is what ties us to all women around the globe. We are therefore the Ya-ya sisters united in spirit.
This book shows you first how to get in touch with your inner self. It also shows you how you can deepen your relationships with women you know, as well as with wonderful women you don’t know. We show you how to be living in the NOW. It’s the magic of sharing a super find to go in the treasure box that adds to the excitement of our day. That sharing literally elevates our energy level and grows our Happiness thermometer. This all helps us to escape for minutes of time from our mundane daily lives. Our everyday lives are filled with tasks we must complete as wives, mothers, sisters, home caretakers or career women. Sometimes it pays to stop for a few moments and dream. Those day dreams help make the quality of our daily lives that much better. We show you how you too can raise your consciousness with thoughtful reflection and have such fun doing it. Your Happiness and JOY thermometer is about to rise!
The other thing as we evolve is we are constantly shifting and changing in our fundamental belief systems. In other words we are constantly morphing and changing as we transform ourselves from who we were yesterday. We are constantly growing or we are stopped still. Frankly if there is no growth, then there is little life. This holds true for people as well as plants. As plants grow in a spiral towards the light so do women and men as we become enlightened. To grow in heart knowledge is more important than growing in head knowledge I have discovered. Heart knowledge gives one wisdom.
As you read through this book you will find two styles of writing since both Priya and Sherrie are jointly writing this. We each are blending our thoughts as we began this creative process. We each have different areas of expertise. We each have nuggets of pure heart gold buried throughout these magical pages.
Sit a spell and story tell! Come! Slide down a rainbow with the wee elf spirits and discover your unique pot of gold! Then check out your Joy Meter at the end of this chapter!
1.3magicalmomentsstar300%20copy.jpg Priya’s Point of View ~ Magic is everywhere . . . you
just need to find it!
So first, what is a Magic Moments box? Is it Hogwarts-type magic? Will it turn my Prince into a frog? Will I be able to fly off on a broomstick? Well, no. Not exactly.
Here’s how this particular Magic Moments box was seeded, and how it grew, and progressed into more-than-a-box. It has literally taken on a life of its own, and is now about making other things happen. But then, that is often the way of Magic, isn’t it!
It all began when I asked Sherrie if she would consider doing me an astrology reading as a barter, in exchange for coffee from Indonesia to feed her caffeine addiction. And WOW! She agreed!
Along the way, I had the thought to add things beyond just a sampler of several Indonesian coffees. And the idea of the Magic Moments box just happened.
I am a great believer in the barter system, because an exchange is often more meaningful that paying for things with money. I already had a sense of Sherrie, what she loves and enjoys, through following her blog for about a year now, so it wasn’t difficult to intuit what she would love and appreciate.
Of course, putting things together for the box and then couriering it so Sherrie received it before she left for Hawaii eventually added up to more than the cost of a reading. What the process generated in terms of fun, anticipation, excitement and just the sheer BUZZ. It’s all about the happiness energy of immersing oneself totally for periods of time. It’s all about the joy energy in gathering meaningful little objects, thoughts and feelings and slipping them into the Magic Moments Box. It proved to be priceless. While it is fun individually to put together a Magic Moments box, collectively it raises our Joy thermometer.
You see, it’s not just for Sherrie and I; but also it’s for my Mum, who was here with me and got into the spirit of things. Those Moments of Joy were not just for Sherrie herself, but also for her Mum, and her beloved Sherpa. It created an all-inclusive watery ripple effect, drawing in those that we loved as well!
I would chance upon things that I knew Sherrie would love to receive. Often, they would just self-select and find their way into the box. It was like these different things wanted to travel to the snow-bound northern reaches of Canada.
I spent about a month collecting things that would go in, and then went looking for a box. Originally I thought I’d decoupage a box myself, then thought she might like a fabric-covered one with Indonesian batik on it. Didn’t find one the right size, so went back to the original plan to make it myself.
Decoupage takes ages, so I would do bits of it every few days when I could grab a stretch of undisturbed time. I ripped up old magazines to do the decoupage with, and gathered the bits together in another box so that I wouldn’t lose track of them when it came time to mail the box. Yeah, right! I just COULDN’T find 2 things I particularly wanted to put in there, so now they will have to go in the next box.
See what I mean? The Magic Moments box has just decided it is going to become a tradition between Sherrie and me! Some nerve, huh!
And you know the strangest thing? I still have no idea what Sherrie looks like, because I’ve never seen a picture of her. I’ve seen the view from her deck with the hoar-frost on the trees, I’ve seen her beloved labyrinth, and her 2 dogs Angel and Mitzzy. But not Sherrie, Sherpa or Elf, yet.

Understand that each chapter can stand on its own. You do not have to logical go in a line from chapter to chapter. It’s about a circle or a spiral. In a circle, there is no beginning or end. It’s a process of nature. It’s a wisdom cycle. Wherever you open the book to, that is exactly the message you need to hear in your life at this moment in time. That’s another piece of magic.
When the student is ready the teacher will appear.
