Instant wishes coming true!

Have you tried wishing for something to happen that you whisper it to yourself and in an instant that longing suddenly came true? I have, more than a couple of times.

Long ago when I was still in high school I took a jeepney on the way home, I was sitting in the front seat next to a passenger who was beside the driver, since it’s a three sitter. Then when I was about to pay for the fare, I realized I lost my money, not a single coin in my pocket. I tried not to panic since the driver was very meticulous in monitoring those who are paying and not. I will be pretty obvious if I will not be handing him my fare. I wanted to go home and home was still far from where I was at that time. On a stop in a busy street I closed my eyes and wished for a miracle to save my face. Suddenly like a ray of light from a dark alley, a lady hand me the exact amount of fare and whispered in my ear that she forgot to pay the driver when she took off. The driver did not notice the lady neither did the passenger beside me. So with my mouth shut I handed the driver the fare.

It's like asking for help, a sign of hope or a prayer. It happens everyday when we are caught in a situation where we needed to have a little faith.

One time I had a very stressful weekday, I wanted to play for our soccer game that weekend but my body can not move, I wished it would rain so the games will be postponed and guess what, it did rain after a few minutes. Heavy enough to cancel the days game.

Never forget that moment, when you thought that there is nobody there who is listening. You might think that it's a coincidence but for some it's a little miracle.
Maybe you can share with me some of your simple moments like this, where your wishes were answered instantly.
