Some places are objectively beautiful. They take our breath away, and then return it to us full of light and hope. Yet magical places are everywhere, even in the “bad parts of town.” Why? Because we carry the real magic, the ability to love, within us. So in the end, it’s not really the magical places that make us fall in love, but our love that makes them magical.
