I'm a little behind this morning but this has been on my mind since I saw Spirited Away last night (great movie btw):

If I was unable to use large parts of my body, say paralyzed from the waist down or even having my arms be useless, but could do all the magic that I wanted - I could teleport, cast spells, control minds, have telekenesis, know all the different herbs and their uses, etc - would I burn with envy at the people who don't know magic but can run and jump and play?

Spirited Away is about something else entirely. But the thought made its way into my head and I think I went over some aspects of the question in my dreams last night.

Anyway, gotta go.
