Can the ordinary still feel magical?

A month ago, I visited Hong Kong Disneyland for the third time. No special events, no Halloween theme yet — just an ordinary day.

But in the midst of the familiar, I found myself savoring the moments more than ever.

Maybe it was hugging Mickey Mouse a little longer, being second to last in line. (Fun fact: I have proven the theory that they won’t let go of your hug until you do!)

Or perhaps it was watching the fireworks, which never fail to spark that childlike wonder. (Aaannnddd made me cry.)

Or probably the company of the rekindled friendships. Initially, it seemed odd to wear matching shirts and headbands, but I soon realized it’s common in the park. (Funny that I only did that now!)

It reminded me that even in ordinary moments, there’s beauty if we open our eyes to it.

God’s grace is everywhere, and you and I can always learn something new—even when you think you’ve seen it all.

Are you finding it difficult to find magic in the mundane?

Maybe it’s time you slowed down.

Embrace the beauty in your everyday moments.

I hope you experience your beautiful ‘ordinary magic’ today.
