When everything else has seemed to fail, all I've had to do is close my eyes and pray. It may sound stupid, and some may roll their eyes and be like "ugh, religion? Seriously?" I'm not that religious. Actually, I'm not religious at all. One day, I lost all my pets in the middle of winter. A fox had broken into my rabbits hutch and all of them, all 24 had escaped. I spent days trying to find them. I got 23 back but the father was gone. I started crying and just said in my head, "Please, all I want is to find him. Please" 2 seconds later he ran by my feet. We caught him and put him back. The next time it happened it was snowing, and since they had never lived in the wild we didn't have much hope. We found 23 again, the dad again was gone. That night I prayed, really just thought in my head. Nothing happened for 2 days. It was snowing hard. I was eating breakfast 3 days later. I saw him run through the snow and press himself up against the hutch. He had been living in the middle of London while it was snowing with foxes coming to my house every night and had survived. We put him back in the hutch. Whenever I've really needed something, and not something like "I want to lose weight" or "I want ..... to like me", I've just closed my eyes, spoken in my head, my mouth forming words, and it's happened.
