Becoming An Independent Women.

Submitted by: Melissa

Pennsylvania

I am a 41 year old women that had gone through a lot of bad times in my life. I learned about The Secret only last year.

I had lived in a marriage that was very abusive and very unhealthy. I left the marriage in August of 2013. I had with out knowing what I was doing, brought my marriage to an end. In my marriage I had focused every day on all the negative things in my marriage. My husband was horrible, I was not happy, I deserved what I was receiving etc. I always blaming myself. Never did I realize that me thinking all these negative thoughts, was what kept all those bad things coming to me. I had gone to see someone who helped me change my thought process, and within two months, it was over. The day I moved out, I turned and locked the front door and was released of the ten years of torture that I had experienced. Since then, I have not given that part of my life another moment. I chose not to allow that to control my future.

When I was introduced to The Secret last year, that was when I had realized that at times in my life, good things did happen by using positive thoughts. Simple things, like when I was younger. Having come from a divorced family, I had always talked about wanting to see my dad on a daily basis and I always thought about seeing him. I had many days that out of know where, he was driving down the road that I was walking on. He lived a long distance away and would have never just been in the neighborhood normally.

Prior to 2012, I was always had 36 C cup bra size, and like many women, I wished to be bigger. I had spoke very often of wanting to get my breasts enlarged in the next few years. One day in 2012, I started to realize that my bras were no longer fitting. So I went to get fitted, me just thinking that my bras had shrunk from washing. Only to find out that I had went from a 36 C to 34 DD. I was very confused and did not know what to say or do. I had even gone to my family doctor to see if anything was wrong. Nothing was wrong, he himself could not explain the increase in size, especially since at that time I was 36 years old. Since learning The Secret, I realized that it was me just always talking about wanting larger breasts, and so I got what I had wished for.

Daily, I get lucky with red lights, always saying and thinking that a light is going to change upon me getting to the light, and I always say thank you.

For the last 3 years, I had talked about an ex from 2000 that meant very much to me. I talked about him a lot and thought of him more. Two weeks ago, out of nowhere, he reached out to me. Since then, we have reconnected.

I have had many other things that I always talked about wanting, and they have happened. For years I had talked and thought about doing boudoir pictures. After about 4 years of talking and thinking about it, a friend said he had a gift certificate that he got for an ex and she didn’t want it. I was so surprised and delighted when I found out it was a gift certificate for a boudoir photo session.

I now changed my daily thoughts and wants to positive thoughts and wants. I now say ‘I can’ and no longer say ‘I can’t’. I have gotten very far in my career and there is so much more to come. Along with taking my marriage out of my life, I have taken every negative person out of my life. Every day I help my friends in need, with positive thoughts and I see their lives change daily.

Thank you!
