That night he showed it to his wife. “Look at this, dear. What do you think it means?”
“Maybe this is what we need,” she said. “Our 38 are so great that they are too much for us. If we start   39   great things instead of the worst, miracle may 40 .” They decided to try changing their thinking for a few days, starting with their    41   problems. Then something changed. Not only did they find their problems    42   be worked out, but they also started   43 a lot of money.

Miracles come in all    51   : big, medium-sized, and small. Start expecting the small ones, and work your way   52    to the big. Think positively,   53     yourself and work hard. You’ll find yourself    54    by how meaningful and   55    your life has become.
