I Am Convinced!

NYCHappily married mother of two grown children.
I am honest and since watching The Secret I am now also transparent. I, at the time, was a 49 year old, perimenopausal wife, mother and semi-caretaker to my 83 year old mother who lost her vision to a rare condition called Giant Cell disease. Anyways, I was at a medical crossroad, fibroid removal surgery or what? I was depressed and physically suffering from the same condition like the woman who touched the hem of Jesus’ garment. A co-worker randomly, or so he thought, brought the DVD of The Secret to work and said watch this because for some reason, I thought of you when I watched it. Confused and not wanting any brainwashing, dupe provoking, hocus pocus, I said OK. I placed The Secret DVD in my bag thinking that I was not going to watch this at all.
I took it home and on that Friday night when my husband was watching the Knicks basketball game and yelling at the television. Not quite in the mood for the noise, I took out my laptop and headphones and laid in my bed. I had random thoughts like, let me watch this ‘secret’ movie but I will keep my finger on the stop button if I see any signs of foolery. I pushed play and was captivated from the start. I watched with such enthusiasm and I became captivated with the words. During the movie, I believe Bob Proctor asked something like “What do you want right now” and my instant thought was the same thing with Jesus and the hem. So I said it, not really thinking anything but deep down thinking “Hey this thing really struck a cord within me”.
I watched it till the end and then fell into this most peaceful sleep which was weird because lately, sleep was not easy for me. I woke up and it felt like I was floating! I went to the bathroom and like the woman in the Bible who touched the hem, I was made whole! Nothing, zero, nada. Wow, what is this? I was excited and watched the movie that entire weekend. It has increased my faith in God.
I declared to lose 50 pounds before my 50th birthday and I lost 52! I sure did.
I can’t begin to tell my whole “Secret” story as time won’t permit it but trust me, I am convinced!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
