I was very happy when they ______ to bring peace and happiness to their lands in the end. Like most of the readers of these stories I secretly ______ for magical powers for myself. I wanted to be able to magically make my pain disappear, to make my problems ______, and to have power over this world that so ______ has power over us.

As I got older, however, I ______ that there was no such thing as magic and how ______ the reality of life was. I had daily pain from a back injury that never healed (治愈)  right. I went through a ______ period of poverty for many years. I felt ______ when both of my sons were diagnosed with Autism (自闭症). I still sometimes daydreamed of magic ______ even that faded away.

Then one day it struck me that there was a ______ kind of magic, which grew ______ in my heart, soul, and mind day by day and year by year. This magic was called LOVE. It ______ me to my own highest self and to all of the other ______ in this world. It didn’t get rid of my ______ but it made every day of my life feel richer. It didn’t cure my sons, Autism, but it helped me see them as the beautiful, loving, and joyful souls that they ______ are. It didn’t make me a wizard or a fighter.______, it helped me to drive the darkness of this world with my own ______.
