Cleaning Agent

My nephew, who is 14, and his mother came round the other day to collect some food, which mum prepares for them each week. My nephew is mad about football (soccer) and hopes to play professionally one day. He showed us his two football glass awards he'd received. As he was wiping one award with his jacket, his mother told him off for using his filthy jacket.

I then visualised myself spitting on the award and wiping it. My nephew pretended he was spitting on the award and wiping it.

"Ugh, that's disgusting!" his mother said.

"I just imagined myself doing that," I laughed.

"You picked up on her thought and did the same," mum said. "That's amazing!"

We had a giggle about how some mothers use their saliva to clean their kids' faces.

Isn't it amazing how we pick up on each other's thoughts? That's why it's so important to be vigilant about what thoughts I let in.
