I am a dreamer. I have always dreamt of great things, a great future. But somehow, along the way, I labeled some of those things ‘unreachable’. I thought that there was no way of reaching those ‘impossible’ dreams. Then came the depression. I immersed in it, thinking that nothing good enough was left for me to strive for. I repressed my deepest wish. To sing.

I would do it every day, but in secret, I would be afraid of other people’s reproach or disapproval. In truth, I felt unable to accomplish something bigger than me. And now comes the ‘when I watched The Secret’ part. It opened my eyes to the opportunities around me. I took a chance and fate got me to the place I’d dreamt of visiting, the United States.

It was a summer program for foreign students, and I embraced it boldly, acting on my instincts. I was thrilled. But then it got tough, I quit the job, I was alone there, with no money, no home, no job, no family or friends. I got scared. But then I remembered about The Secret. There had to be a reason for all of this, a good one at that. So I believed that it was for the best.

I was right. Not only did I find a job, a great family to stay with, and traveled around a bit, but I also experienced so many new things, and got a new perspective on life, on my life, and on me. I finally found the one thing I’ve always looked for. Myself. I finally found my way to my happiness. A treasured wish from my childhood emerged as I met a great musician there. I had always wanted to sing, and I remembered that. I realized that music was my life, always. So now I am pursuing my dreams – to be a novelist, and a composer.

Now that I know what I want, my goals do not seem as unreachable as they used to. I can see my bright future with my mind’s eye, and all thanks to that one movie I saw, and continue to watch every once in a while. I do it to remind myself what I’d learned, and to be grateful for so many things – for believing in myself again, for finding my way, and for having a chance to paint my life the way I want it.

Every day, I thank God for The Secret. And for the Law of Attraction. It’s God’s way to show us that he cares. And it’s our way to thank him in return.
