Well, I guess I'd rather believe in magic than not believe in it. Some things are really mysterious. It's like they're destined to happen. The fortune teller that my mom often visits makes really accurate predictions. He's very learned, and an expert on the I Ching. There's no way he's the kind of fraud who just pulls stuff out of nowhere. One time, the fortune teller told my mom that in the future, there would be some scars on my face. Sure enough, when I was in middle school and my classmate and I were riding bikes downhill, I had an accident and there really is some scarring on my lip. How's that for accuracy?

Man, oh man, the more you say, the more mystical it seems. So do you and your mom often draw lots, worship the Buddha, make offerings to spirits and burn incense?
