In the early spring of 2006, as the snows of the winter were melting I was making my way on a sidewalk in River Forest, IL, while listening to the audio version of the book “The Secret”. I left my car for service at the local outfit – Lake and Thatcher. It was still cold outside. No one was walking in the street other than me. I found the narration interesting. For a long while, the LOA fascinated me. I read books on the subject. Like many others, I was among the big group of the skeptical. I didn’t call it “crap”. I didn’t call it a scam. I just found it interesting but I still wasn’t sold on it. As I walked came a tipping point. It was a small “tip”. It turned out that the small “tip” got me tipped over into the ranks of those “sold” on the LOA idea. The tip came in a form a $10 bill printed by the U.S. mint. It was lying there in a small puddle of melting slushy snow and brown water, folded times three, probably all winter long. The bill was clear enough to attract my attention. I am one of this minority who trouble themselves to pick up a penny or a dime on the street or parking lot. Never before, I bent in order to pick up a $10 bill. It is a 1to 1,000 ratio between a penny and a $10 bill.
