My Perfect Family Came True.
Submitted by: Louise
EnglandI am a 29 year old woman.
I am writing this because I lived through several relationships which were negative and I thought I would never be happy. I felt worthless and like my time was running out to settle down and have the family I had always wanted. My negative thoughts were that I would never meet anyone and have children. This made me feel heartbroken. I spend evenings feeling lonely and lost. Also, in the back of my mind was the knowledge that I had been diagnosed with suspected pelvic inflammatory disease. I was told it could make me infertile by blocking my Fallopian tubes. I never discussed this with anyone, but I feared a life where I may not have children.
My father had been a great believer in The Secret. I had always thought of reading it but put it off many times. One day I decided I needed to be more positive and read the book, it was worth a try. I loved reading the book and I also had the CD audio that I listened to on my way to work. I began feeling optimistic. Instead of dwelling on the kind of men I had previously been with, I started to imagine my life with a man who would enhance my life and make me feel good. I felt good about myself and started to treat myself lovingly. I thought “If I love myself, others will follow”. I made space in my wardrobe for my mans clothes for when he came to me. I left the passenger side empty for him in my car instead of putting bags on it. I was physically making space for the man of my dreams. Then on the 8th October 2014 I wrote about my man as though he was already in my life. I described how kind and loyal he was, and how much he wanted to be with me every day. I wrote about our life together, holidays, a lovely home and our children. I felt warm inside just imagining it all.
By the 28th October 2014 I had met my man. He was everything I had described in my letter, I could hardly believe it. He wanted everything I did, told me how much he wanted to be with me and settle down. He could see the same future as I had wanted. Things were so fantastic, there was nothing I wanted more than my new man who I felt I had known for years! We went on holiday and were inseparable.
In the back of my mind, fear began to creep in that I may not be able to have children. I discussed this openly with my man. He has reassured me everything would be fine. I decided to start writing about our baby. The Secret was sure to work again! I sat and described our baby boy, how he smelled and how beautiful he was. I pictured him all the time, our boy.
One night, two months after I had started practicing The Secret again, I woke up after having a vivid dream about our boy. I felt emotional and knew I needed to get a pregnancy test. I just felt like he was there. The test was positive! I couldn’t believe it! I was so happy and elated! I had got pregnant after all the time I had spent in the past worrying it wouldn’t happen. I knew my positive thinking had made this happen. My man kept saying I must not describe our baby as our boy, until we knew he was a boy. I kept telling him “You will see!”. When we were told during a scan our baby was a boy, we were so happy!
We moved into our lovely home prior to his birth. I am typing this as I breast feed our beautiful baby boy, and I thank the world for him every day! I couldn’t be any more grateful. I write down all my cherished times with him. I feel so lucky to have such a happy little family. Our boy brings us more joy than we could ever imagine and we love him more than words can say. I feel blessed and thank my lucky stars that I read and practiced The Secret.
In the future I know we will have another healthy, beautiful baby. Our adventure and life as a family will continue for a long time. 🙂
