Follow that link. Watch that video. Learn from that magician.

‘Nuff said.

Go spread some wonder! (Never have those four words been so appropriate.)

    I had a similar experience with my amateur sleight of hand in another war long, long, ago. Magical is the only way to describe the emotions of the viewers (then) that desperately needed a break from the horrors that surrounded us.

    What a touching story. Magic can have some very positive effects on people. It can take their mind off what is troubling them. They can get away from the troubles or pain for a little while. And lastly….Tim you are right; “Go Spread Some Wonder.”

    Vid takes a while to load so please wait.

    This blokes actions should give us all the reason for a few “free” shows (in their season). This is his workplace…Warzone… I work in my own warzone on our home streets. Yep I’m a cop… But it is incredible the reaction to my message of life change for “My” street kids of My neighbourhood. I ask everyone else who is a part time magician. Are you or can you be a magic plumber, magic gardener, magic receptionist, magic supervisor…….. Let me say it is incredible the impact you can have on others lives as you perform your art and link it to real life situations. Our medic here uses it to help heal hidden wounds. So can we all in our varied lives and experiences we live through daily.

    Wander and give wonder.

    Those four words are indeed so appropriate for this. It’s good to know there are still some people out there who care about someone other than themselves. Being a father of two, watching that video brought tears to my eyes. It is just sad that little kids have to pay the price of our stupidity. Don’t get me wrong, our troops have my complete support but I still think what we have done with the world is stupid. Sorry for the harsh words and yes, please continue to spread the wonder.

    Tim, I saw this on the news. This magician deserves a lot of credit for not only serving our country but helping people have a few moments away from their problems of life in a war zone. I do think XCM should be mixed in with the mystery of card magic. that is leaving some one with the thought of,How did the magician do that. Which seems to me to be what you say,: “Go spread some wonder”
