MIRACLE WORKERS
It is very difficult to admit that, even though we are aware that Life does not happen by itself, because for our dreams and desires to come true, it is necessary, fair and inevitable to take initiatives and make our aspirations happen; it is very difficult to admit that, even though we are aware of all this and much more, there is a dimension in us that waits for everything to happen, for a stroke of luck, for a sign that God and Angels exist, we wait for the sky to open and that what we see in dreams will come true by itself, or that the fleet of extraterrestrial beings will bring order to civilization.
We cannot be so naive, or too severe, to claim that magical realism is impossible, because our humanity has full evidence of miracles that subvert the logic of natural forces, and not because they are supernatural, but because we cling to the conviction that natural is only what we understand, and therefore we disregard, prudently or recklessly, everything else that is beyond the reach of our understanding.
That is, miracles are real and they happen, but when we become dependent on miracles we create a very complex problem for ourselves, because by behaving like this we abdicate our humanity.
When we intend for everything to happen by itself, we unwittingly sacrifice our freedom to choose, and by choosing and daring to experiment, we allow our intellect, emotion and bodily instrument to be the miracle workers.
