I decided to watch a little TV last night, a rare occasion these days.
What I didn’t expect was to see Cinderella Man starring Russell Crow and Renée Zellweger – where was I when this got out in theaters…I honestly do not know.
If you want a good visual on how the Law of Attraction works – this is one of those movies where all is revealed – the Secret is revealed. The moments in magic. Bless the multi-talented Ron Howard for sneaking in this profound Universal wisdom!
Of course, as boxing is not my favorite sport, I flipped the channels whenever Russell Crow’s character went into a boxing match. Then I became so engrossed in an Extreme Makeover Home Edition segment on another channel (love, love that Ty!) that I missed Jim Braddock’s come back from the hard times he had faced during the Depression.
I had realized however that no matter what, the fighter’s (Crow) main priority was his family’s safety and comfort. That was his intention, his goal, his main purpose.
I also did catch three very important scenes – in the beginning, when the family was down to nothing, their electricity had just been disconnected in the winter, and one child was sick. In that same evening, while the children were sleeping, Crow and the amazing Renée Zellweger (wife) were sitting at the table, their faces glowing in the candle lit night (a little drama here for effect!).
Zellweger lovingly takes hold of Crow’s hands (one is broken from fighting) – she lowers her eyes as in prayer and states the following Bless us father for what we are about to receive. (That’s the Secret to Believe…being grateful even if you don’t see it)
Then at the historical match of the Depression Baer vs Braddock, at the very end – where you think Crow’s character has had it, where you think this is it, that Baer’s won the match. You see Braddock visualizing Baer going down. Then after so many blows from both sides, you are actually surprised that both men are still up when the sound of the bell signals the end of the match.
While his manager and others are frantically and anxiously waiting on who would or should win the match – you see Braddock in his corner smiling, even kissing this cute old guy on the head….he was BEing happy in the moment while surrounded by total chaos.
That’s the Secret to receive….and he won!
(I’m assuming here that you’ve seen the show, if not, I suggest you buy it as a reminder to keep the Secret alive going towards your goal!)
Expect magic….I am!
Love & Peace….is an inside job…Parise
