i remember last week riding home on the train and reading the paper. there was an article about a boy who needed a replacement heart and a large picture showing the boy in his bed with all the instruments to keep him alive. nearby were his parents who looked as most parents would; scared and unsure what to do. i looked at the picture mesmerized for some reason. i grew sad but that passed quickly as i focused on the picture.

i stared at the boy in his bed and envisioned him waking up and smiling at his parents. i also pictured him later on running and playing without a care in the world.

i then looked toward his parents, whose faces i saw change from worry to relief. i saw them grateful theyre prayers were answered and happy their son was alive.

i then took in the whole picture, and imagined a glow about the scene. i saw a new picture of the family going home from the hospital, with tears of joy. much later they walked along the beach, enjoying a sunset.

as my stop was coming up, i turned my attention back to my surroundings, and gave a small thanks. i said to myself out of the blue, 'so it will be' and made my way out of the station, leaving the newspaper behind with the article showing.

today there is an new article about the boy:

after reading this i sat back and wondered about the thoughts i had on the train a few days ago. although some would say coincidence i would like to think i added my own 'three cents' with the others who were feeling as i did.

though this forum is mainly about our own personal growth and abundance, i wanted to share this as another example of positive thought and reverence of Life and its design.

how wonderful this life is when such things happen.

Hi astonisher,

"though this forum is mainly about our own personal growth and abundance, i wanted to share this as another example of positive thought and reverence of Life and its design."

Yes, part of this forum is about our own personal growth and abundance, but it is also visualizing the same for others...."more life to all, less to none."

That was a very kind thought that you put out to the Formless concerning the little boy and his family. You are thinking and acting in "The Certain Way." Congratulations. I look forward to more of your posts.

Much abundance to you and to all,
Tom
