Awareness saved my wife’s life

 

Awareness and the use of Cell phones Part II 

 

This is a story about serendipity and how our thoughts can create our possible future experiences.  Four days ago, I wrote about driving awareness. Two days later, the 26th of February, Josie and I are walking downtown Stillwater, Minnesota on my birthday and Josie is almost run over by a car.  Our combined alertness, her jumping and me pulling her out of deaths grip prevented her from being another casualty at a well-marked pedestrian cross walk, with us having the right-of-way (the numbers counting down on the pedestrian traffic light).  It seemed to have all happened in slow motion.  I can still see the smiling face of the man behind the wheel looking at the women sitting next to him, he is then suddenly looking out his windshield, a look of horror sketched across his face as he was about to run over a woman.  It all happened so quickly there was no time to brake, no sound of a car screeching to a halt.  It was all over in the blink of an eye.  I’m grateful we’ve developed an awareness of our surroundings that helps prevent such an event from happening.  That same night as I lie in bed, I thought, “what would I have done to that son-of-a-bitch if had run Josie over?”  I assure you, my thoughts were not very nice.  Last night the 27th we started watching a new TV series on Amazon Prime called “Inspector Lewis”.  The story begins as any good masterpiece mystery does, by introducing the main actor and a little background of his life story.  Guess what his story is?  His wife is killed, run over in a hit and run accident!  When asked if the perpetrator was caught he says, “No”!  He goes onto tell how he is glad they were never caught because he believes he would currently be in jail for the things he would have done to them.  The serendipity in life accelerates as you become more aware of how life seems to unfold.  That is why I often tell people, myself included, “be careful what you wish for, you might just get it!  I’m not talking about being fearful of your thoughts.  I telling you to become more mindful of your thoughts.  Physical manifestation is a three-step process.  Think it!  Say it! Do it!  Our thoughts, combined with words and actions become our experience.  Be careful what you think about.  It just might manifest in your life.  Sometimes good, sometimes bad, but almost always driven by emotion.  E-Motion=Energy in motion.
