This is probably not the kind of story you are waiting for. But I want to share it anyway.

It has been about eight months since I first read The Secret. It has helped me in so many ways I can’t possibly list them all. So I’m going to share just one thing, which may be nothing to other people since it is not a great manifestation story but which really warms my heart and makes me happy.

I am a 38 year-old South Korean gay dude who realized that he wants children, just last year. Before that, I had always thought I had no desire for having kids. But last year I met someone who changed all that, and now I want kids, even though I’m not with him any more, I still do.

He was a Taiwanese-American financial analyst who was working in South Korea, very rich and he was planning to have kids through surrogacy, which costs about 150,000 USD per kid, according to him.

After I broke up with him and realized that I still wanted kids with or without him and also realized that now it was I who had to come up with 450,000 USD (because I want three children), I was devastated.

But not for long because life was kind enough to throw the book The Secret in my way a few weeks after our breakup.

The book taught me that any dream of mine can come true, which I totally believe.
In South Korea, gay surrogacy (nor gay adoption) is prohibited by law.

But I think there are ways. One of them would be me emigrating to a country where it is legal such as the US, but I think there are ways even in South Korea, and you only have to imagine and feel it to make it come true.

I wish I could now reveal a fantastic manifestation story where I actually earned 450,000 USD and had my three surrogate children. But alas it did not happen yet.

But I guess I am 450,000 USD richer nonetheless.

Because, all thanks to The Secret, or rather, thanks to The Power, I now am completely open to the idea of adoption, which renders 450,000 USD surrogacy unnecessary.

At first, when, in moments of doubt, I thought that if I failed to become rich and surrogacy was not an option for me because it was too expensive, then maybe I could have kids through adoption. But this thought of adoption always made me wince.
I wanted my kids to have my blood. And what if the children’s biological parents were bad people!

But after months of living with GIVE LOVE as my motto like The Power teaches, one day, while visualizing feeding my child together with my perfect partner, I suddenly thought that if this were an adopted child, if we (I and my partner) tried to be good fathers to some helpless, abandoned, poor children, if we gave unconditional love to them even though they had neither of our blood, then that must be the greatest love of all!

As for their biological parents’ bad genes affecting my children negatively, well, The Secret teaches us to expect better things than that, doesn’t it?

So, now I am totally open to adoption and do not care if all of my three (or more) children are adopted and not surrogate.

And bam!

I am 450,000 USD richer!

Making more money is not the only way to get richer. Having to spend less money is certainly another way to get richer, like when I started not having to carry pocket tissues of my own with me all the time because I had cured my germaphobia thanks to The Secret and now could use a hand towel and toilet paper kept in gentlemen’s rooms. I even joked to myself “This is how I’m going to be rich because I’ll save so much on pocket tissues!”

Well, I did get richer, a little bit because I did save and am still saving money on pocket tissues.

And now, because I am open to adoption, because I am ready to give the greatest love of all, I am 450,000 USD richer.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, to The Secret, The Power, Rhonda, Universe, and last but not least, me (for being such an obedient follower of The Secret) 🙂
