Ha! Where do I begin? My life was a complete mess! I was on drugs, I was depressed, I was a self-hater who attempted suicide once and contemplated it many other times. My hatred went deep in that I did not care what I did to myself or what others did to me. I didn’t care how I treated others or what I did to anyone anymore. I wanted out of life! I didn’t even know where to go. I had no feelings, no goals, no motivation, no love for myself and especially not for others. I was self-centered. Drugs will do that to you. If you told me that the sky was bright and beautiful, I would find a way to say it was cloudy and about to storm. Even though I was the only one seeing things that way, I knew I was right. You could tell me any different.

Then one day, I was in the library and came upon this book called: “The Secret”. What’s the secret, I thought? Everything is a secret these days I believed. But curiosity got the better of me and I started reading it. I found it to be the most fascinating book I ever read. Surely, you can’t be, have, or do anything you desired in life. If so, then why didn’t I or anyone that I personally knew, know about this? I decided to check the book out. For the full two weeks that I had the book in my possession, I read and re-read it and cried. I cried because I thought what a total waste of my life, a waste that only I can own! I had to turn things around! This “secret” was going to show me how. After completing the book, I went ahead and ordered the DVD! I was even more mesmerized!

My life has done a complete turnaround! I don’t resemble myself anymore! My thinking has changed. How I see myself and the world is not the way I used to. I am more loving towards myself and others. I see the glass as half full now, not half empty. My bout with drugs is a thing of the past. I don’t even desire them any more. I have gotten help and I am doing great! I am now the happy woman that I should be! The old me faded into the darkness and I was brought into beautiful light!

Bless, bless, bless, bless, bless you Rhonda Byrne for bringing me that light!
