     We all have the ability to rise above and conquer our fears and doubts


Mable opened her eyes and found herself in a wonderland of white snow and wintery landscapes on this fairytale holiday in Switzerland for Mable . She was alive and well inside this cable car that was making its way upwards to the top of a mountain where life had suspended a dream on a tightrope just for a moment to reflect on the stillness of a frozen world between reality and nowhere . Somehow, she felt part of it alone and anchored to a space where she had never been seeing things she had never seen like an innocent child once again trusting and believing that dreams are real and nothing else matters .
Suddenly there was a jolt and a shudder . The cable car came to a sudden stop .It swayed for a while back and forward until was motionless . All of those inside began to panic and scream .Mable took control of the situation .
“So does anyone here understand English ?’
All of them replied.
“Yeah of course “
Mable continued ,
“Okay now listen , we are in control of this situation . We need to use the power of positive thinking to engage this situation so that cybernetics can take control . We all need to focus as one to the mechanics of this cable car and the energy we create will enable the resumption of our journey to the top of the mountain ,”
Not a sound was heard . Everyone inside the cable car seemed to understand what Mable was saying as she continued .
“We are in control of our situation . We all need to have faith and invite hope and joy into this situation . The power of positive thinking can change our situation .Let us all drive our prayers and thoughts to the continuation of our journey in this cable car , We are not at an end on this journey we are just taking a short break .Concentrate on the wheels on the roof of this cable car and urge them to turn . Command them to turn , remove any other negative thought to intrude . Let us take control of our situation . let us have faith , let us all remain positive and be courageous. Our cable car ride here today is more of a journey in self-belief; we are not going to allow ourselves to get stuck in doubt that will end up taking us nowhere . Tap in to the power within and start to think positively . Never doubt , never fear , believe in who you are and what we can do to change our situation . “
Suddenly the cable car again made a few grinding sounds and the sound of a gear clicking back into place was heard and shortly afterwards the little cable car was again back on its way up the cable track to the top of the mountain . Everyone started to shout for joy and cheer all the way until the end of the journey when they all got our to shake hands and thank Mable for her powerful intervention that saved them . Mable was humble and again affirmed the power of faith and how thinking positively can get us through very difficult circumstances in life . Dave her tour guide was astonished at her ability to turn things around . The people there walked over to the Summit Café on the mountain top where they had some lunch before getting back into the cable car for the return journey back down from the summit .
At the end of the journey Mable was approached by the owner of the cable car who asked who she was other details about her life . When it was discovered that she did murals and other artworks he asked Mable if she would accept on commission artwork for all his cable cars . Mable said she would and her holiday in Switzerland was extended .When the work was completed Mable returned back to her Railway carriage house again to resume her usual everyday duties again .

Unfortunately, Mabel's sudden bravery and power of positive thinking don't match in any way the previous story where she was basically, lost and fearful in a foreign country and saved by understanding people like Dave.
