"It was working, every single day."

"It was working, every single day."

I was living in Belgrade, Serbia before the war started. We were under economic sanctions at that time so we did not have gasoline among all other crucial things for life like, cooking oil, sugar etc. I was going to work by buss, and saving gasoline in my car for emergencies. So was everybody else. Waiting for the buss was long and there was no guarantee that you can get into the buss even when it shows up. The buss was over crowded so commuting was long and unpleasant for the lack of better word. I was fed up. I don't even remember what was I reading at that time, but something on the line how you can create with your mind. I had interest in learning how mind works from young age. Every day after work, out the desperation, I was standing on that bus stop, mentally repeating: the first bus to come will be the bus #65, and I will not just get in but I will have a seat. First day the first bus to come was bus #65 and I barely got in, although I did not have a seat. Anyways I was content. After few bus stops lots of people got off the bus and the seat right in front of me become available. Next day after work I knew what to do. And It was working, every single day. After some times I told that to my husband who was complaining about the same situation. He was looking at me in disbelief but he said he will try. In the evening he got home saying: this is just not true I did try and nothing happened, those things are nonsense. I asked him: Did you believe it will happen when you were saying those things? He said : No, I was just testing it. Well, I said, that is why it did not work for you. lol
