Three weeks ago my boyfriend finished with me. We were together for only seven months but that time was so intense it felt like double that. I was a fairly closed book, he wasn’t and the intensity of his feelings scared the hell out of me, consciously/subconsciously. A long story short I behaved badly towards him and pushed him away. The moment he told me he thought it was best for us both to be apart it was as if my heart had been ripped out of my chest and repeatedly stamped on. The last few weeks have been horrid, September has passed in a blur and I am still surprised it is now October. I didn’t sleep or eat (which is a first for me!) and longed for him like nothing before.

Things were pretty grim for a while and I’m sure family and friend’s patience were pushed a little. I then had my palm read, which is quite an unusual thing for me to do. It was amazing, within 40 minutes it was like the person had read the book of me and was relaying it back to me. This was comforting and gave me hope when I needed it. Then I was planning (a well needed) spa day with visiting family but I had forgotten the book that I was reading. We stopped at a shop and I was looking for a light read and there it was on the shelf. It presented itself to me. I live overseas from my family, they were visiting and were leaving the next day. I felt grim and was upset by having to say goodbye to them again on top of the break up. I opened the Power and didn’t put it down until I had finished it. I can honestly say that that was the day my life changed. Until that point I had muddled through life not really knowing myself, being too influenced by others and using things as an escapism.

I bought the Power 3 days ago. I have gone from feeling the worst I have ever felt to feeling happy and serene. In 3 days! For the first time in my life it feels like I have stopped and stood still and really seen what is going on around me and in me. To anyone who knows me and could read this they would have me sectioned in an instant I’m sure. I’ve smiled every day from the moment I’ve woken up, the last few years have been consumed with money woes and all the other woes that we all endure. I feel lighter and happier than I have in years. I now know my true feelings for my boyfriend and have been implementing the practices every day, although it’s early I know. I know in my heart of hearts that he loves me, I truly believe it and I anticipate and look forward to a long and happy life finally content with myself and hopefully blissfully happy with him. I know he’ll come back to me, I just have to be patient and in the meantime I can continue to discover myself and continue to discover that I like the person I am finding.

To anyone reading this, don’t give up, whatever your situation, just have faith. Thank you for reading this and thank you for bringing the Power into my life, I really believe it will change me forever.
