I acknowledge that my girlfriend is a witch. At first, I thought it was all just a joke or an act, but as I got to know her better, I realized there was something more to it. She had an uncanny ability to predict things and seemed to have a deep connection with nature and the spiritual world. I found it both intriguing and slightly unsettling. As our relationship grew, so did my acceptance of her abilities. She would often use her witchcraft for good, helping her friends and loved ones with healing rituals or using her intuition to guide them through difficult times.
Some of the problems I have with the true name magic system include:
Look, I get that making up a language is even harder than learning a real one or a real fake one like Tolkien Elvish or Klingon but you can t half-try either of those. And I definitely wouldn t call Japanese the True Language and make it more mystical than English because that makes the Japanese automatically more mystical and that s actually totally racist to do.
She would often use her witchcraft for good, helping her friends and loved ones with healing rituals or using her intuition to guide them through difficult times. It was truly remarkable to witness the power she possessed. But it wasn't just her abilities that made me acknowledge her as a witch.
The Magic of calling a Name; and how you can Benefit
"Today was not a usual quarantine day for me, and nor it was for ARNOLD. While I stepped into the grocery store this afternoon, I've been asked by a gentleman working in the security team to have my temperature checked prior to entering. With a shy smile he said "All good sir, you may proceed". It took me a blink of an eye to catch his name from the name-tag. "Thank you Arnold !", I said.
That wasn't a regular day for Arnold; the wide smile, filled with white teeth on his beautiful hardworking African skin manifested a sea of feelings."
I can see you smiling while reading, you're recalling a similar situation.
Ever witnessed the excitement of parents picking the name of their awaited baby. Why is it so intense and involves so much feelings and emotions ? Our names are born with us, but stay forever; after we die, they remain to preserve the legacy of what we have planted in this world.
Why is our name so meaningful ? What feelings does it unleash when we hear it ?
The great Dale Carnegie have once said,
A person’s name is to him or her the sweetest and most important sound in any language
The name is the identity, it is the individuality. We all seek to be acknowledged, and our names are a key indicator of this acknowledgement. We feel the joy of being remembered by people. It just feels great.
Remembering someone's name and calling it is a sign of courtesy and a way to recognize someone's worth. It might be very simple, you say, but is actually an iceberg of feelings and emotions, which peak is the only you can see.
Long story short, calling a person's name is magical, and can benefit you in so many ways. I will show you how you can use the magic to solve problems, close a sale, be happy and make others happy.
I replaced my TV for free, problem solved
One of the particular moments I recall was moving to my new flat, and purchasing a 55" TV. I had it delivered, tested, put back into its box and I signed on receipt "with good condition". It was only after two days till I decided to unbox again and mount it.
My eyes couldn't believe how big the crack was in the screen, extending from one side to the other. It seemed that the delivery team had misplaced it in the box, resulting in the crack.
I rushed to that branch of the international chain of stores, with the broken TV. I was helpless, I signed "Received in good condition".
I called the floor manager. "Mr. Saeed, I am in trouble, and need a gentleman that would be very "Saeed" (Happy) to help me solve it."
I got a wide smile, a TV replaced for free, and a good connection in that branch.
Close a sale
Number one overlooked and disregarded key in most sales training, is remembering Names. Closing a deal comes with prerequisites. You should know, recognize, engage and create a very close relationship with your customer before even attempting a sale.
This is the reason why the first meeting with a customer should only be a "meet and greet". You should not attempt a sale on the first meeting. Build a solid relationship with your customer, penetrate his comfort zone, then make a deal. Do it by recognizing his Name.
"In my professional experience, I am usually a customer, but I recognize, the Names, Faces and even Voices of more than 50 Vendors. This is how I build relationships, and close deals. I bargain more openly and confidently, while always securing their full support".
Be Happy, and make others happy
There is no greater example than the one of ARNOLD, to start, and end this article with. It is always a pride for anyone to hear you calling their names.
Whether it's the Cashier, Security, Officer, Cleaner, Policeman . always take a look at their tags.
Even when you receive calls, "Hello Sir, this is Maria speaking from . ", elaborate on the name, make it weigh to them and to you too.
Name-tags are not only made for complaints. Most people use them to report employees, after they, customers themselves, misbehaved.
Names are so magical. Remember them, read name and call them.

It was her mindset and perspective on life. She embraced the magical and mystical side of the world, viewing it as an integral part of our existence. She believed in the power of intention, manifestation, and the interconnectedness of all things. Even though I may not fully understand or relate to her beliefs and practices, I have come to respect and appreciate them. It has made me more open-minded and curious about different spiritual paths and ways of thinking. Being in a relationship with a witch has also challenged me to question my own beliefs and explore my own spirituality. It has allowed me to grow and expand my understanding of the world beyond what I thought was possible. While it can sometimes be overwhelming or confusing, I am grateful for the opportunity to be with someone so unique and extraordinary. Our love is not conventional, but it is genuine and profound. So, yes, I acknowledge that my girlfriend is a witch. And I wouldn't have it any other way. She brings magic and wonder into my life, and I am forever grateful for that..
