One of my favorite books is, "I Am Not Myself These Days" by Josh Kilmer-Purcell. If you have not read this memoir, I strongly recommend it as it brings insight into a lifestyle that most will not experience (actually, besides the author, I wonder if ANYONE will experience) and many may not even consider to exist. It is full of quotable lines, but one of my favorites is:
"All airs of modesty are disposed of in the dressing room. We're all wizards here, and we're all behind the curtain. Nothing to hide in Oz."
No matter what we do professionally or personally, we all have those "behind the curtain" expereinces that make our world a mystery to others. Even if these things are illusions, it adds an air of mystery that can keep our lives fresh and vibrant. As we head into the weekend, don't forget to relish the wizardly aspects of your life - we're all a little bit magical!
