Illusionist

Different types of magic shows there are and the magicians are sometimes known as illusionist, creating the situation and tricks. It isn’t impossible to be one of course, for practices would help perfecting the skills needed, thus able to present it on stage. However, there are times where we are the illusionist itself, not in the sense of performing tricks, entertaining people, but to create this illusion, telling ourselves that something is happening or sort, though it isn’t. We have people who want to be strong, want to set a very good impression to all and yet, they couldn’t accept the pain given by their lives and choose to ignore it; that is not strong, but to act one, an illusion. Also, there are those who have been living in the world where everyone does not trust each other, as if betrayal would take over anytime, anywhere, not to mention doubts and questions often pop up in their mind, creating more fear. Perhaps it is the truth that we shouldn’t trust the people around, especially when it comes to the reality, when we step into the outside world, who knows? Sometimes the magic trick is so real that even the audiences thought it is real, similarly, there are times where we are blindfolded by questions and doubts, after several times of imagining the worst, we thought the worst has occurred and eventually, it does. Audiences do know what they’ve seen, what the magician has performed is an illusion; people around do sense our intention sometimes and when we are to apply, they would do the same.
