The Other Side Of LOA
Submitted by: Mandy
Sydney, AustraliaA young woman trying to faithfully follow the LOA and live my life with an abundance of gratitude.
First and foremost I would like to express my gratitude to Rhonda Byrne and all those connected to The Secret for being a beacon of light to so many. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
My story is not the one I originally have been waiting to share, but I feel this is one that needs to be told. I am a university student and I have always received fantastic grades. Until spring session 2012 where I failed a unit. This seems like a small thing, but in my final semester with the prospects of undertaking honors with the head of school, this was a seriously cutting event.
Now most will be reading this thinking everything turned out alright and it did. I stayed positive and this year I am redoing the subject and I hope will still have the opportunity for honors. My story though is actually this. A friend of mine today went through a similar event and I was able to help console her and see her through to a possible bright future.
I got to thinking and realized why I was at Uni, is that my greatest desire is to help others and today I got that opportunity and the final understanding of why I had to go through the disappointment and shame of my own failing.
We spend our time asking for what we want and I received just that, but the better part was that I became aware of the universe’s use of me to aid another. The universe provided me with the situation to enable my aid nearly 12 months in advance. Yes, it hurt me initially, but I have lost nothing for experiencing my own failure and I now have been able to positively help another.
I now know that even though I may not be aware of what I need and want and even if I am, the chances are the universe has already laid the path and all I have to do is be ready to accept it when the time is right. I am no where near perfect at LOA and am in love with a man who is yet to work out what I mean to him. But now I know the universe will always provide as I have had the honor to be the instrument in this case.
