Good Vibrations: The Secret to the Law of Attraction

By Susan Henderson

I have been aware of the Law of Attraction for a few years now and there has been proof in my life, both good and not so good at different times, that this is the real deal. Very simply: What you think about and how you feel about it is what you attract.

A few months ago, I had just finished reading "The Amazing Power of Deliberate Intent: Living the Art of Allowing" by Esther and Jerry Hicks (The Teachings of Abraham) that morning. I had been in a really good space and actively practicing raising my good vibes. I am not kidding you--I was actually feeling giddy with joy and appreciation.

Later that day, I leash up my two dogs who themselves are giddy with joy at the idea of an outing, and head to my car to run some errands. Something is wrong. My car looks shorter. Then I look down and see that both tires on the passenger side are completely flat. Upon further inspection, I see that they have been deliberately slashed. Whoa! How could this happen? I have no enemies. I am nice to everyone I encounter in my neighborhood. Was this a random act of vandalism? What the heck was going on? I have been vibing extra good vibes, for crying out loud.

So I trot over to my neighbor who was working on his car and ask if he has an air compressor, which he does and we inflate both tires and do a makeshift patch so I can get to a tire store and buy new ones. It plugs into the car lighter thingy so he has me take it along so I can inflate the tires again if need be. Good thing because there was a 'need be' about halfway there. Luckily I soon found a tire dealer open on Sunday. When the guy removed the front tires, it was discovered that my brakes were worn down to the near nubbin danger level. He showed me. Yikes.

Immediately, I flipped my switch back to the good old joyful-giddy place and am thankful that some creepy little punk slashed my tires so that I could become aware that I need to replace my brakes. Hmmm. This good vibe stuff can be challenging. And that is no secret.
