The Power Of Love
Submitted by: J. Jury
Lemoore, CAI grew up in an abusive family. My mother had 9 children. At age 11 I found myself living on the streets involved in gangs, in the LA area of California. I carried much hurt and pain all of my life until now. My father was murdered. I am so happy now.
My life has been a journey of immense trials until now. Everyone has a story and mine just happens to be riddled with lots of trauma.
I lived in the streets at age 11 years. I ate out of garbage cans, drank out of water hoses, and slept in parks. It was not my choice to be out there.
My older sister was a gangster but I did not belong out there. I was in a middle of a war zone out there and hated living in violence. The first chance I had I left the streets and never looked back.
Later I met a man and married. I understand now I drew that abusive relationship into my life. I found the courage to leave him. For a year he stalked me, destroyed my vehicles and tried to get me evicted from my apartment. I went into hiding.
I finally broke free from him. I was homeless again. I got a job as a stripper to get back on my feet. This was not an easy job when one chooses to do it sober. I hated that job and first chance I had I quit. I became a high priced, barbie doll, call girl, lots of money but no self worth. I became addicted to the easy money but found the courage to walk away from that too!
I was introduced to “The Secret” two years ago. For all of my life I read books on psychology, desperately searching for the reasons why all the things in my life, all the hurt, all the scars… Why did they happen?
“The Secret” saved MY life and the life Of MY SON!
I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. At about 8 months old my son began to exhibit signs of Autism. His immune system began to turn on his body. He became allergic to everything.
His father and I had just moved from Ohio, had little money and were about to become homeless. I could not work, given the health conditions of my son.
We lived in an apartment but had no furnishings, pots, pans, etc. At times we didn’t have anything to eat. I told my boyfriend about The Secret and asked him if we could somehow find a way to come up with the money to buy the movie. I pleaded to him stating I never asked for anything ever but that I desperately wanted this movie.
He bought if for me. The day I watched it, tears of joy ran down my face and I was empowered that day! I knew right then and there why I experienced all the trials of the past. That moment I let go of all the anger for all the hurtful memories I had carried with me for all of my life.
I begged the Universe for peace… It gave me peace! I asked the Universe for joy… It gave me joy. I asked for Love… It granted me the ability to feel all the wonderful feelings I never had the chance to experience in my life.
Each new feeling the Universe gave me felt sooo wonderful. I don’t know how to express in words, walking around feeling hurt, desperation, and fear for all of my life and in one Magic Moment the warmth of all good flooded my soul and I was truly alive!
I thought if that was all “The Secret” was going to give me then I was truly blessed. But that is not what the Universe decided for me.
I continued to practice “The Secret” for many things. When we were hungry I would ask for food and a knock at the door would startle me. It was the neighbor giving us food. It was that quick!
I believe my heart was overflowing with gratitude just for the awesome gifts of feeling wonderful, being granted the ability to feel it.
I asked the Universe for so many things and it granted it to me immediately. The list is so long I could not list everything.
To have peace in my life: Thank you
To have the ability to walk in LOVE: Thank you
To find and experience JOY: Thank you
For so many years I cried tears of pain and now I cry tears of JOY! Thank you… Thank you… Thank you…
My son is 3 years old and I recently began to teach him “The Secret” His teachers and therapists are amazed at how quickly he has recovered! They keep asking how a child with sensor issues, a child that could not speak, a child that was violent to himself and those around him, how could he progress to become a loving little boy who chatters words (yes he can speak!) How did this happen?
I shared “The Secret” with them and now they practice it. We have become friends who encourage one another. I shared it with neighbors. I went from being all alone with no friends to laughing with extreme joy in my heart for the new friends I have now!
I will never forget what this book has done for me, my son, my friends. I am so very grateful for everything I have been given. The miracles I was granted in healing first my broken heart and then healing my son’s Autism. We are no longer broken people but people who send love and blessings in a world desperately needing it.
The miracles keep happening so much so I could fill a book. I share my triumphs now with any one who wants to listen.
