Saturday 13th September 2008 I was with my three best friends in a bar in Bournemouth looking out on the sea. The moon was full and the view was so beautiful. I burst out in tears revealing to them that the three year relationship I was in was all wrong, I couldn’t see my future and it scared me. I have always had so much ambition but felt lost in myself I didn’t know who I was anymore.
Sunday 14th September 2008 I got home to Portsmouth and left that life, not looking back. I actually did what I thought would never happen. Two weeks later I met someone through friends. That night we were inseparable, we couldnt stop talking and that was the night I was introduced to the secret.
Gary had been given the secret and had been using it in his life. He wished for a job the night we met and he was out celebrating his new job. The second thing he had asked for was a girlfriend. One year and two months later we are still together. The things he was telling me about the secret were interesting but I was fearful of reading it as I was brought up to be a Christian and thought, hold on I can’t read this God wont be happy. Plus I felt that I always have practised the secret without even knowing it.
For over a year I never even thought about The Secret, but something made me buy the book one day and I couldn’t put it down. It is amazing and it really does work. Just the simplest of things: me and Gary wanted to see a movie one day that started at 12.30 and made us laugh. It happened. I am so grateful that I now consciously know The Secret. In reading The Secret it is amazing to see that this is what most religion is about however they have chosen to have a thing to wish to… God etc and in realising this I have no guilt in believing in myself my thoughts.
My best quote is Buddha page 73 “All that we are is a result of what we have thought.” I love to talk to others about this to spread the word and have found that some people also have not noticed but they are using The Secret in there lives.
