White or Black Magick

This is on my profile and its what I stand by:

I don't claim to be white or dark witch, I don't believe in either. All magick has dark and light aspects, so I find it hard to believe a person is strictly white or strictly black. Magick is magick simply put.

Magick is what you make it.

It is very difficult to explain magic to someone just starting to learn. Mainly because there is so much rubbish written about it.
So, this what I was taught,
Magic is changing one or more things into something else.
Only the other day, I posted a little about the magic of cooking.
You gather together the ingredients, pop the mixture in the oven, and it "changes" into a cake! That's magic! Changing.
Scientists do it all the time. But they are afraid of the word "witchcraft", so they call it "research". But it's the same magic that witches have been doing for centuries!
