Seven year old Susie became very intense with her crayons as
she colored in her coloring book. It was her world of dreams to make the black
and white pages come to life. She kept a separate blank book of her own where
she would create her own images of things dreamed of the night before. A box of
her favorite breakfast cereal was drawn and colored in. The next day it appeared
on the kitchen table. Coincidence was not in her vocabulary as Susie thought to
herself that maybe what she drew, came to happen. As an experiment to prove her
idea, she drew a new car in mom and dad's driveway. They won a lottery drawing
the next day, just enough for a new car which her parents bought shortly
afterwards. It sat parked in the driveway and looked exactly like what Susie had
colored in. She realized a special gift or magic that she had but kept this
secret to herself and never told anybody. Throughout her teen years and early
twenties she would draw and color in those things she felt that were needed the
most. Not out of greed, but of necessity. At thirty years old she felt lonely
without a boyfriend and a dream from the night before told her what to draw and
color in next. She was very artistic by this time and paid very close attention
to details. The drawing was of a church with people walking into it. In her mind
it was wedding about to happen. One year later she was blessed there in a
marriage that she so desperately dreamed of. The now filled in blank book was
left somewhere on top of a table where the bride and groom sat at the hall of
their reception. One last page remained which showed a honeymoon resort where
they would eventually go to. The janitors cleaned up after the wedding and never
found a book that was left there. However, they did pick up a box of Susie's
crayons...
