If you just believe

Submitted by: Lorraine L

Long Island, NY

I always knew the Secret until my husband died suddenly. Then my world came apart. But I realized that all changed when I started to feel good again... when I started to pray again.

Many years ago, when I was a high school senior, I met my soulmate. Which is what I wanted even at 17. I always wanted to marry my first love and prayed to God that it would happen for me.

Well it did. We dated for 9 years, never broke up… had a fairytale life. I believed I was lucky and always prayed for the things I wanted in life and was thankful for them. I also believe my husband knew the Secret as well, because he always visualized things and never really knew how he was going to create or receive them, but they always happened for him. He was very successful.

Then things started to turn for us…. his business was having trouble and we just had a child. It was very stressful, and the life changing events were an adjustment and struggle. I prayed to god every night to help my husband, and He did. It wasn’t the way I expected it to happen though.

My husband died in a sudden car accident. And what is so weird about it…. I and everyone else who knew him always thought that’s how it might happen for him. He liked living life in the fast lane and loved to speed. He was a good driver, but his time was up. I think he had enough with his challenges and I prayed for him to be ok. I never wanted him to die and I miss him dearly, but I know he’s ok now and he’s never going to be in mental anguish or pain again.

So my life took a turn for the worse. Things really started going down hill. Still I tried to stay positive, but for a while I didn’t believe in God anymore. Why would he take my husband and father of my infant child away? Eventually I started to believe in God again. I had to… he gave me a beautiful daughter in memory of my husband.

Eventually I told myself you have to start living again by trying to feel good. So I did and I put myself out there and met my new soul mate. I have an even stronger connection with this man than I had with my husband, and I never thought that would be possible. I think God made this man for me. We are perfect in every way. Even our bodies mesh together like a glove. It’s an amazing feeling. He’s so perfect and I’m so thankful for him.

Things with us were great, but I kept telling myself it’s just fun, and that it was too perfect to last. I had hoped it would, but I think deep down inside I was afraid, and I told myself it wouldn’t. So that’s why it didn’t, because I thought it and believed it wouldn’t. Then my best friend bought me The Secret.

It changed me and I realized that I always knew the Secret, and the only negative time in my life was when my husband died. Now I know by reading The Secret that I just have to ask, believe, and receive… and receive in a way of feeling so happy, like you have received every wish you asked for immediately, and always be thankful and generous.

My love has been talking to me again, and one of my requests was that he admit he misses me, and he did the other day. I know now we are on our way to having a wonderful future. I know that because I believe, and all you have to do is believe… I think that’s the real secret. I’m so happy now, and I know the universe is going to answer my every wish.
