My dad was always a very angry person who used to shout and yell at the slightest wrong thing. I haven’t seen him laughing or having fun all my life.

Recently we were on a holiday and we accidentally forgot one of our bags in a temple in South India. That day I think the whole hotel must have heard him shouting at us for our irresponsible character. We were all feeling we had spoiled our holiday which we planned for a decade.

Then I started “The Secret” just for no reason. I started visualising my dad smiling and how it would be if he was lively and joyous. It’s almost a week since I did that and he hasn’t once shouted or got angry. This morning he even asked my mom whether he should broom the house. It’s like a miracle. I thank the writers of this wonderful book very, very much.
