A Blue Bicycle and a Little Boys Dream.

I have always said that manifesting didn’t just start the moment you heard about the law of assumption or the law of attraction. We have been manifesting our entire lives.

Everything that we see, hear, taste, smell, feel and experience was a manifestation from us.

We only just became conscious manifesters when we found out about LOA.

This post is to show you exactly what I’m talking about with a story of myself when I was a young boy.

I was born in Munich West Germany but I was raised in both Germany and the United States.

My parents really didn’t have a lot of money when we were kids, there were three of us. Myself, my sister and my brother. I was the oldest of the children.

My father was an enlisted man in the Airforce and my mother stayed at home caring for the house and us children.

It was a normal upbringing on a military base I suppose. Non of us were rich by any means. Not even the officers.

Every Christmas season Sears used to send out these huge Christmas catalogs filled with toys and such for kids and adults alike. They were fantastic. They were big and colorful and had every toy you could imagine in them.

We would sit on the couch for days just staring at the pages marking what we wanted.

This one year as we were flipping through the pages I came across a bicycle. This was no ordinary bicycle though. This was a bicycle that was blue with a blue banana seat a sissy bar a gear shifter for a drag brake too. But the best thing was how you steered it. Most bicycles had handle bars to steer it but this one had an actual steering wheel. That’s right. It had a blue steering wheel instead of handle bars.  Was it safe?  Hell no. But it was cool as all get out!!!  

It was a dream come true for a little boy like me. I loved cars but was too young to drive one and I liked the freedom a bicycle could provide.

Each day before Christmas I would sit and stare at that page with the steering wheel bicycle on it. I would imagine myself riding that bike and all the kids in the neighborhood wanted to ride it and be my friend.

I didn’t want to share that catalog with my brother and sister but I had to. They were taking away from my bicycle dreaming time.

One day I was at a friends house and noticed they had a brand new sears catalog sitting on the table. It looked like no one had even opened it. I asked my friend if we could look at it and his mom heard and said sure, take it and dream big Christmas dreams. I went straight to the bicycle page. We must have sat there for two hours looking at that bike.

When it was time to go home I asked my friend if I could have the page. He said sure. They never look at those things.

I carefully tore it out of the catalog and happily made my way home.

I folded that page and took it with me everywhere I went, even to bed.

I would lay in bed and look at that bicycle every night before falling asleep. I would dream of seeing it under the Christmas tree and of riding it. I could feel it in my imagination. I was so happy.

I never told anyone I wanted that bicycle, especially my parents. I didn’t want to be greedy because I thought that it was really expensive. So I never said a word.

My sister knew though. She could see the smile on my face each time I looked at that bicycle. She knew what I was feeling inside.

Come Christmas morning my parents always seemed to stay in bed later than usual so we would sneak down the stairs and try to see what was under the tree. It was dark down there but my sister said she could see a bicycle wheel behind the tree.

Could it be the bike I wanted?  No. I didn’t say anything to my parents.

We went to our rooms and impatiently waited for our parents.

When they finally got up and went down stairs I flew down them. I don’t think I touched more than three steps.

The tree was twinkling with all the lights on and as I walked around to the side where a bike was I saw the blue steering wheel.

It was the most glorious Christmas gift I had ever gotten.

Back in Ohio during Christmas it was cold but I wanted to ride my new bike. I hastily threw on a jacket and some shoes and was out the door with my bike.

Some of the other kids had gotten bicycles as well but none of them got the steering wheel bike.

I was the luckiest kid in the neighborhood. Everyone wanted to ride my bike. I was now living in the end.

So you see we have been manifesting our entire lives. Most of the time it is things we really do not desire because we put a tremendous amount of negative energy into them. But every once in awhile we actually did it right by focusing on the desire and imagining already having it and applying all the senses and elevated emotions as we can to that imaginative scene. Persist in living in the fact that it’s already yours and disregard anything to the contrary and you too can have your blue bike.

You’ve got this. Anthony.
