My name is Francis and my wife is Francine. My story is one of mind over matter and the courage to change everything I felt was wrong in my life.

It begins in New Jersey. I was a person of little self-appreciation and with outlandish desires. I thought material items were all that would make me happy in this world. Looking back, boy, was I misguided. I started to do things that were very destructive to myself and to everyone around me, blaming everyone but myself, of course. I left New Jersey in search of a way to get out of the nasty predicament I was in, my own mental destruction as well as my drug abuse. I thought it would help me to be able to deal with my so called ‘terrible life’.

Everything went well for a while until I found myself right back where I had started, if not worse than where I was before. Through this process, I met someone I could see “light” in, even though this person had the same drug-fueled destructive mentality as myself. But the Universe was telling me something and I listened.

Our last act of drug abuse for both of us was 4 years ago. We now have a 3 year old child who is the best thing since sliced bread. The Universe also is sending us another gift, another child. Due to circumstances, I met a gentleman who was very successful in his life. He noticed my heart and saw that my work ethic was strong. And sure enough, he gave me the opportunity of a lifetime.

For once in my life, I finally have a stable life and boy is it incredible. I truly believe that you are going to get back from the Universe the same vibes you are giving off. Do not let negativity infiltrate your goal structure. If you are reading this you received the best gift the Universe can bless you with, life. The ability to love, laugh, triumph over obstacles, help the needy, and feel euphoric without anything but pure spirituality. I now thank the Universe for providing me with what I once upon a time wrote down, concentrated on, and prayed over. To have a life full of gratitude and love. May everyone reading this understand that we are in heaven here on earth. So, enjoy it, and thank you so much for The Secret.
