Our Need For a Moment of Magic

What is it that creates moments of magic? What is it that causes a country, a world, to stop and watch as a fairytale comes to life? What is it that still has the world talking, debating, awing, about the Royal Wedding of May 18th 2018, so many days after the day when...
