Beyond my dreams

About 2 years ago I came across The Secret. I remember watching it on the Oprah show and feeling so inspired. I immediately went out and bought the book. The book appeared small and an easy read, so I read it in a day! I couldn’t put it down. I felt chills and excitement flowing through me as I read. Within a few days I bought the movie version. It was even more real to me at that point.
Having been single, lonely, broke and just simply unsure where life was taking me I figured, “What do I have to lose?” For the next few months I was very aware of my thoughts and actions as I tried to make the world around me a different place. Everyone around me thought I was acting strange with all the positive energy that shined off of me. I wrote a letter to myself telling me about everything I dreamed about and how I wanted my life to be. My vision was to live in a gorgeous house with the man of my dreams. I pictured him and I laying out back in the sun hanging out by the pool. Seeing at that point that I was 3 years single, broke, and working as a bartender unhappily… let’s just say it seemed like a far reach.
The important part was that I needed to stay focused and keep that faith. Within 4 months, I met the man of my dreams. 6 months after that I began Schooling to become a nurse. 6 months after that, a family member gifted me a piece of property! It’s now 2 years after the first time I picked up Tthe Secret. I’m living in my first new home with the love of my life.
We spend a lot of time out on our patio in our hot tub! It’s truly amazing how different my life is. Not just different, but exactly how I had imagined it!!! The funny part is that everything happened so gradually that it was just a month ago that I realized, “Oh my goodness, Tthe Secret really worked!” It’s eerie how it all totally happened for me.
I’m truly grateful and hope that anyone who reads this is inspired to take the reins of life and run with it!
