15. Laundry Day and the pros and cons of Magic.

Well, today was one of those days. The days that you do laundry! Yayyyyyyyy! (Sarcasm, for those who couldn't tell.) I did a dark load, and a light load. I was going to wash my comforter, but hey, I discovered it can't fit in our washer! So that was interesting. And annoying. 

It's at times like these we think of magic, and say to ourselves, "If only I could do magic. I could just have this comforter wash itself." Think Molly-Weasley-house-chores-style.

And so I will go on a rant about magic!

Pros of magic:
  • wouldn't have to spend as much money
  • more medical cures
  • less pollution (brooms instead of cars, lumos for light, ect)
  • short cut spells... so less chores!
  • magic is just awesome in general
  • more that I can't think of at the moment...

Yay!

But since I am thinking about all the good stuff about magic, we must also think about the downside. Think of Voldemort and the death eaters as your examples. While there is much good we could do, there's also the bad some people would do. I mean, imagine giving Hitler a wand! That is something we can all agree we don't need. 

So the con:
  • There are extremely evil people out there that would use it against us!

So is it possible that not having magic could be a good thing sometimes? That is the difficult question!
