Magical Thinking Mug
The belief that one exerts more influence over events than one actually has. I.e, being superstitious, or OCD with a positive goal in mind. It is the belief that we can control everything around us with our minds through activity, thought, and sometimes habit. Everyone, in some ways, has magically thought before. It's a popular activity we have used a lot in our youth. The saying "step on a crack break your mothers back" is Magical Thinking. The hope that a stop light will turn green when you drive up to it, is magical thinking. These, of course, are small examples, compared to the grand mind controlling changes magical thinking can actually some up to. My friend is the type of person who will cross the street at a crosswalk, keeping her eyes on the WALK light. She thinks, if i make it to the other side before it starts flashing DONT WALK, I'll have a good day. Conversely, she believes that if the light changes while she's still crossing, something, "vague but definitely bad" may occur. This is the type of magical thinking that is dependent on what's happening around us. Keep in mind, sometimes it can turn into extremes, like masochism, or martyrs syndrome, because there relies the hope that something eventually rewarding will happen. But this only happens to the less fortunate who can't control their mind well enough. Some are better than others. The more positive coincidences, the more powerful of a magical thinker you are.

I ordered 4 of your mugs -- and have received 3; hopefully, the 4th is on its way! So far, I've received "fame," "620," and "$" ... only needing "hulo." ...It might be a matter of me being patient, that the 4th mug is on its way. However, the 3 received SO far are all EXCEPTIONAL, in every way!!! Mark Moilanen

wow! this mug is so thoughtful to giving to my wife!
The description tells nothing but facts. 5 stars instant
Your description is right on, except in 1989 I named my daughter Kallen Mikel (www.kallenmikel.com/original-art). I thought I made up the name, but apparently, it originated as a boy's name in Greek and Hebrew. I first found this out in 2001 when I was traveling to Finland. In the 'tube food' section in a big Finnish supermarket there it was, a royal blue tube of salmon paste with a blonde-haired boy named Kallen! So now I have discovered that there are many Kallen's of both sexes. I want to buy her a cup, but it has 'him' on it. Is there any way you can make that a unisex description for both sexes? Just askin'. Being a Barbara (Barbs) myself ... a 'cake eater' from Edina, MN I had to ask ... haha ;-)
Thank you for the mug. It arrived fast and exceeded my expectations.
