If In Doubt, Sing And Dance It Out!
Submitted by: Robyn Stainrod
EnglandI’m an aspiring dancer/choreographer, obsessed with my art and at times an annoyingly relentless optimist with a huge passion for love, people, and of course dance. I want to help others in any way I feel I can. I am brutally honest with myself and determined to live my truth and not succumb to my ego or accommodate those of others. I am unapologetically me.
Thank you first of all, to Rhonda, as you have a gift and a way of communicating the ways of The Secret to people. You do it in such a way that they truly resonate, so thank you for being amazing at what you do, for being able to connect to so many through your words, and for sharing your energy and experience!
So I was introduced to The Secret when I was going through a hard time and it genuinely did change me and my whole life. There is so much I could speak on but for this particular story I’ll leave the rest out, for now, ha!
So basically I was in Beirut for 6 weeks on a dance contract with 2 other girls. That in itself, I attracted to me after a month of ignoring people telling me to get a ‘normal’ job ‘for now’, as I refused to even look at anything else until I felt it necessary. That was when this job approached me, twice!
While I was there, one of the girls lost her phone in an Uber that she’d ordered to get us to a pool party. Obviously, this was very inconvenient for her and it was also more complicated with us being in another country. We had gotten Lebanese SIM cards whilst out there but we had not topped them up so they were out of service. That made it hard for us to try to call the phone or track it. We asked someone to call it on their Lebanese phone but they weren’t getting an answer. They said it just wouldn’t go through, as if it had been declined or blocked and they said “Sorry, it seems your phone has been stolen.” So we then returned home to WiFi and tried to get onto my friend’s Uber account online to track her last driver and contact them. But when online, it wasn’t showing the receipt, which was strange. It was as if all the info had been wiped as if hacked. This began to panic us.
My friend was constantly at the laptop trying to contact her phone company and Uber. I gave her my phone to try to ‘WhatsApp’ her phone but no luck.
I’d brought The Power with me and asked what I should do. Then I opened the book at random and it opened onto the page with the subject of the power of visualization. I also had opened Twitter to see the tweet about it, rather than running around trying to fix the circumstances. I wanted to feel good instead and let the Universe provide.
I decided that I needed to stop. I literally put music on, danced around, and cleaned. I decided to be happy and calm and cheer my friend up. I was also telling her not to worry and that she would get it back. I lit incense and bought my friend her favorite chocolate bar to have with a ‘cuppa’ with, basically trying to soothe her into a better vibe.
It worked. She stopped all the searching and attempting to sort it and became a lot more easygoing. She seemed to switch to my vibe which was happy, calm, and knowing. I made sure she went to bed saying that it was fine and we were going to retrieve her phone the following day. I then wrote in my book how grateful I was that my friend had gotten her phone back, fully intact and with ease. I said thank you as though we’d already done it. I visualized my friend’s reaction of relief when her phone was returned and I specifically imagined her blowing kisses to the person returning her phone to her. That was what she told me she used to do out of habit as a thank you to customers in a bar she used to work at when they were leaving.
The next day I got us an Uber to the Uber office, my friend was very nervous so I asked the taxi man to turn up the music and I gave a little song and dance and literally got myself in the best mood. When she said she was nervous, I simply said “Don’t be, there’s no doubt today’s a blessing and we’re just on our way to pick up your phone from our lovely driver”. I decided to be grateful for the driver and despite the alarm bells that suggested he’d stolen the phone, I chose to believe he wouldn’t do such a thing as he was too nice a man.
We got a little lost on the way to the building so I asked for help from the first person I saw and we got taken to the front door by a nice man happy to help us. We went into the office which was empty and they saw us straight away. They tracked my friend’s journey, found her driver, saw her phone was reported found, called them and within an hour the driver had come to deliver the phone! And he also took us back home for free!
When leaving the car she thanked him again and blew him kisses, just like I’d pictured.
Thank you!!!
