A Smile for a Shilling

Submitted by: Vikki.B

Northern Territory Australia

I am kind hearted, creative and I seek peace and joy. I love my three girls, husband and true friends.

I have known of the secret in passing but never delved into it, instead I think positive and meditate. With much success I have remained even, happy positive, through lifes ebbs and flows. Watching, observing but still searching. Then only 7 days ago, my beautiful friend gave to me a gift, two books. The secret and the gratitude diary.
I read it very fast as i could not put it down and I had a long flight to get home.
After reading it I thought I am going to really try test this thing out.
So I imagined and believed and felt.
I wanted to try something very small, I wanted to find a five cent piece, but not an ordinary five cent piece, it had to have a fold in it, I imagined a clean fold about one third of the way of the silver australian five cent. Which I knew would be very distinctive, yet very hard to find.
I felt it and was happy and let it be, continuing on with my day.
About two days later I walked over to the shed and I looked to the ground and found an ordinary five cent piece, I smiled half amused, thinking yes thankyou universe it is five cents but I asked for one with a fold or if not a fold a wave of some type. I continued on happy, amused and smiling.
The following day at work a collegue and I went to find a card for a fellow friend whom was leaving.
We stopped by a charity table for legacy, as my collegue new someone at the table. My friend brought a key ring, however while standing there, I saw a lovely pair of earrings, silver ones that really caught my eye. I said to them that these are just lovely and I very much liked them. They were in the shape of a hat, a legacy hat, much like an akubra but with one side of the brim flat and the other side folded neatly back and a shiny polished silver.
The gentleman behind the table said to me”do you know what that is?” No I replied, He continued and said it is a shilling. Do you know what that is worth in todays money? I said no again asking how much. And he replied five cents.
I immediately smiled with joy and knew, the universe moved to help me find it, perfectly folded one third of the way in the form of a shilling shaped into a hat. And that is how I smiled for a shilling.
How wonderful.
Now I am working on the land I want, we have placed 50 acres under contract pending finance, oh and it has our name on it. I am so excited I know it will be ours to move into in the next 8 to ten weeks. Bring it on.. Thankyou.
something so small is giving me the belief to see my bigger dreams and make things happen. I have had things like this happen to me in the past, but now I know why and how it happened, now with this very simple technique I can move the world to make my other goals come true.
