Magic Forums

So I finally talked to my boyfriend about magick and he said it was okay (and kind of cute) for me to do a protection spell for him, but when I asked him what his views on magick were, he said he didn't have any views or opinions because he didn't quite know what it was. I tried explaining it to him, but found it hard to so it in terms he could understand and even had him read a part of a Wikipedia page (the web page didn't really have a good enough definition--I was better off just explaining it by myself), but I still don't think he quite got it. I'm probably going to talk to him about it again sometime, so does anyone know how I can explain magick somehow to him? I've known what it was my whole life, but never had to explain what it was to anyone else before. His mother's Christian, but he's agnostic and they're not judgemental. He respects my beliefs. So how should I explain magick to him?
