Don’t stop believing
Submitted by: Kelsi S.
Chicago, ILFor the majority of my life I was mostly unhappy. I had stumbled into some trouble and got myself wound up in some unnecessary situations. I never did anything terrible, but I always felt I was damaging my relationships when all I was trying to do was “be happy”. I was like most people chasing after unrequited love, even though the people I was always after only every brought bad things into my life. I thought I was “different” and had such a miserable life and no one could understand me. And thats exactly what I got people not understanding my intentions, thinking of me as depressed and angry, and seeing me as a person who I wasnt.
A few years ago I found The Secret, and I was so intrigued by it that I immediately began thinking positively and believing in it. It worked wonders. I had gotten a job, started making a lot of friends, had men flirting with me every day, and was feeling like I was on top of the world. I bought a car and was always out doing everything I loved to do. I was so caught up in everything that I actually forgot that The Secret was what started it. I guess I didn’t realize it at the time.
I met a guy, we talked, and I was too wrapped up in him that I lost sight of everything. I let the little things bother me, and one by one my life went back down the tubes; I got pregnant, started hurting financially, and lost my car. This only continued to drag me further down. Then out of nowhere, I remembered how I pulled out the first time: The Secret.
I immediately went online and started reading the stories and information. I was shocked that it had really worked for me a few years ago and that in the same way I had pulled myself back down. This time, I would change what I did wrong the first time. And that was that I stopped believing I stopped believing that my thoughts altered my life and I let them take over again. That will never happen again.
I filled out my check a few weeks ago. I decided to be a little daring a request a large amount; $25 million. Yep. $25 million dollars.
Why not, I thought? Why not live and be happy? Have enough money for me and my son, to help my mother and siblings, to be able to donate and help people around the world? Why not? I deserve it, we all do. And there is an abundance… the universe will give what you ask for, no matter how much. And we all deserve the best, every single one of us.
I bought a lotto ticket the other day without really thinking about it, playing a game I dont usually play. What was the jackpot? It was 25 million dollars.
Never stop believing.
