I Finally Feel Beautiful!

Khartoum, SudanA girl turning to a woman.
This is my first time to share a story here, even though lots of amazing things started to happen to me after reading The Secret and watching The Secret movie!! First of all, I really have no words to describe how thankful I am for having the chance to read the book and know about the law of attraction. It has always been in the teachings of my religion, Islam, but I never fully understood it until I read The Secret book. So thank you, thank you, thank you so much, from now until forever and a day after.
Today something amazing happened to me and made me smile with tears. Back when I was younger, maybe like seven or so years ago, I used to have very negative thoughts about my looks. I hated to look at the mirror and I thought that I was fat and ugly. I never appreciated anything about myself. I had very low self-esteem, even though I used to go to a hair salon every once in a while, but I never liked how I looked. That was way back before I learned about The Secret and the law of attraction.
At that hair salon that I always used to go to, there was this poster of a very beautiful girl with this beautiful haircut who I always thought looked like me if I ever lost weight and had clear skin and longer hair. I always secretly wanted to look like her and part of me believed it was impossible but then I used to look at the girl on the poster and then look at myself and feel down and ugly.
Then after I read The Secret about four years ago I started to appreciate how I looked, slowly, slowly one step at a time. Now I appreciate everything about me! I love myself and I love everything about my looks.
Today I went to a hair salon but not the one I used to go to. I asked the girl to fix my hair, so she started to wash it and as she did we started chatting about hairstyles and how to take care of my hair which was now very long. So she suggested to cut my hair. I told her that I needed a change anyway, so she cut and styled my hair.
What just amazed me and brought me to tears today was that when she turned me around to the mirror, I realized it was the same haircut that the girl on the poster I used to admire had! And, I looked exactly like her! Actually, I looked even better! So I silently smiled with tears in my eyes, remembering all the negative feelings I used to have back then and realizing how much I had changed. I got the same exact hair cut without planning to cut my hair or even remembering that girl on the poster!
Thank you, thank you, thank you so much for The Secret!
