The Miracle in Newton Massachusetts

Five years ago a tree collapsed in from of our neighbor's house. It was massive and must have rotted inside and when a truck backed up into it it just collapsed. It's weight ripped open our sidewalk and became a security hazard for our children and pedestrians. I called up the City of Newton and asked them to repair the sidewalk but the first time around they only pretended to take my information down as I learned a year later when I called about it. In any case once I registered I also learned that the average turn-around time for a project like this is six years. Well, I did my own contribution for the safety of our children and passersby. I parked my car in front of it and let my bushes extend out onto the side-walk, encouraging people to cross the street instead. I am sure neither action made me very popular in our pristine neighborhood. In any case, this year I decided that I would trim the bush after all and after much labor had cut the massive bush in size. The miracle happened a couple of days later. The City of Newton showed up and repaired the sidewalk out of the blue. Well, these days we call these occurrences 'The Law of Attraction' instead of a miracle, but it was an eye-opener nevertheless.

Actually I thought about writing episode this down but then didn't bother because you would likely call it a pure coincidence. Well, here is the thing. Today I planned putting grass down in my backyard but kept the area where the new asphalt was put to a later date just because the project seemed overwhelming. Well, perhaps you have guessed it, exactly on the day when I was planting the grass the City of Newton workers showed up and planted grass around the construction site. All I had to to was to plant the remaining 50 percent of the side-walk. I can't help feeling connected. I love the Law of Attraction.
