i be have difficulty assimilate the message of this episode and it doesn not come across a all that positive to me . you have young henry who think the world of bolie jackson youre my friend bolie and youre my good and close friend . i have to tell you and that kind of friendship be worth more than anything else in the world . with not enough people in the world to believe in magic and wish and i find it almost cruel that bolie would take away henry big and tall wish to do something wonderful for his friend . yes and i know and bolie be try to help henry realize that the real world doesn not work on hope and wish and but would it have be so bad to help henry believe in miracle . you know and the kind of miracle that resemble yes and virginia and the kind that turn a loser into a winner with a prayer and a just make it so . i think it just a little sad that henry grow up at the end of the story by realize that he might be too old for magic and wish . i be try hard to come up with an alternate end for the story and but i be come up empty . it seem like this time and rod serling paint himself into a corner and couldn not come up with a clever way out . a good take away might have be for henry to learn that try and fail be good than not try at all and and would have make bolie a good friend for be that teacher .
