I just finished reading The Secret 5 days ago and I am reading it through a second time.

The message of this book has started a ripple effect through my life as I write this.

Let me explain.

Growing up I had a religious experience when I was 19, somewhere along the line I came to believe that it was a sin of some sort to really enjoy life and walk in joy. I thought that I had to be always be asking for forgiveness and repenting of some hidden sin deep within me.

After reading this book I do not belief that anymore.

This has been confirmed to me by a lot of little events happening in my life since reading this book.

Sometimes joy will fill me to the point where I can feel myself breathing from within, it is like energy shooting through my body, and I will start to laugh. I’m not trying to be dramatic, but that is a good description of the feeling. I am sure other people experience this.

So that is my story.

Thank you Rhonda, I think I have adopted you as my spiritual mother.
