It's strange, when in a certain mind-frame, nothing and everything makes sense. When you forget the magical aura humans have invented around life and mystery and replace that fiction with fact - you question everything. When you remember that humans are a handful of organs, carbon, water, atoms... The illusion of romantic notions like love, commitment and faith are just ideas. Love isn't a magical thing, there aren't soul mates - it's a chemical reaction.
However when this mind-set is upon you, the world makes sense. It fits in logical balance with the universe, the mind-boggling complexity is unquestionable, but it makes sense and I think seeing through the magic is the destruction of innocence and ignorance that everyone needs to enlighten their perspective on life - to enrich their happiness, to motivate them to do great things and for them to prioritise what is important to them.
Though, it is a sacrifice when the alternative is blissful ignorance - we can all be more mature and sensible in a world without magic, potentially leading to fair government, global equality and peace on Earth, but what keeps you invested in humanity when the walls of reality crumbles around you and a man's life becomes a number?
