A Small Thing That Grew Belief
Submitted by: Eric J. Watkins
Silver Spring, MDOriginally from NYC, pursued athletics in college and subsequently married and moved to the Washington, DC area. Am no longer married, but am the proud dad of a daughter that is growing into all that I had envisioned!
A childhood friend, who was aware of my current circumstances, mailed me The Secret DVD at a time that I would certainly admit I needed it. Having always been a person to well-receive inspirational material, I absorbed all I could, not only about the concept, but how to attract those desired things in one’s life.
Well I was in my local Border Books thinking about how I would choose to get home that day. Though public transportation is readily available, I live close enough that the 20 minute walk would often serve as a mild cardio workout. But this day I wasn’t feeling like walking. So recalling how in the movie Mike Dooley suggested “to start with something small”, I gleefully imagined, asked for, and believed that upon exiting the store I would have a short wait (as bus schedules can be erratic) until I would board the city bus for home. I smiled to myself, as this was my first attempt at The Secret. And then I released it.
Well, I had not yet reached for the door handle before I saw the “Free Mall Shuttle” pull up at its stop not more than 10 feet from the door. I was so shocked that I almost stumbled out the door and onto the shuttle bus that took me back home.
Truly? . . . All I can say is WOW!
