A Hole Filled In, And Hope Renewed
Submitted by: Dewayne
Ontario, CanadaI just endured one of the darkest periods of my life over the last year. It began with losing a woman whom I was deeply in love with, because I was unable to fully open myself up to her. That was followed by me losing my job of two years, without the possibility of good prospects to follow. Next, insurmountable debt that led to my declaring of bankruptcy. In the process of this the inevitable takes place – a whopping 30 lbs weight loss. I had felt completely devoid of feeling, and care, want or desire, and in the process continued to make bad decisions.
The whole year continued on like that, bad decisions made here, nonchalant take on everything made there. I just didn’t care, and felt like I couldn’t care.
Two weeks ago I received The Secret book and DVD in the mail from my aunt, who had passed some 7 months prior. At first I thought nothing of it, but popped the DVD in that night. Like most people have declared, I instantly felt my life changing in the process. The funny thing is that we had had a copy of the book in my house for well over a year in the spare bedroom, and never once did I consider to pick up.
Someone had said that the worst case scenario is that I find a heightened sense of self, and happiness, from reading the book and applying the teachings to my thought processes and actions.
I have given my thanks for all the things that I have in my life that in the previous year I resented, and give thanks for the things that are coming into my life. I once believed that hope hinders as much as it helps, but now know that I am in complete control of my life and the things, people, and happiness that I want in it. Thank you soooo much, Rhonda.
