Look For A Green Monkey!

Submitted by: Corrina T

Cambridge, UK

I'm 28, I'm from the UK but currently live in Sydney. I watched The Secret and felt I believed every single word of it. Since then I have realized that absolutely everything that's every happened or is happening in my life was because of the law of attraction. Since then, my life has improved in so many ways. I will probably write a few more of these stories as there's just too many to fit in one. I'm so grateful for watching The Secret and for all the books! I'm a songwriter!

Songwriting has always been the way I express myself. I’m a hopeless romantic and writing about my relationships has always been my main inspiration. After one very intense, amazing and tragic relationship ended, I knew that my inspiration was in place. It had ended with the door not quite shut. I felt that there was more to play out and still feel that way.

Anyway, my feelings were pouring out the best lyrics I had ever written and I was full of energy to write and record my first EP. I visualized holding my 5 track CD in my hand. I thought about how when I had it, the first thing I would do would be to send it to the guy who had inspired me. So many times during the creative process I wrote that letter with pure excitement, knowing that one day I would be able to do it. I imagined him opening it and how excited he would be, how it would ignite all of those amazing feelings once again.

Anyway, after a year, I had finally finished it. The day came when my CDs arrived in the post and it was an amazing moment. I started writing the letter I always knew I would write to him but something was wrong! I felt like it was the wrong time to send it! So I decided to wait till it felt right, but I asked the Universe for a sign to let me know when the right time was. The first thing that came to my head was “green monkey”! I was like ‘What the hell, brain?!’ But I thought ‘Right OK, when I see a green monkey I will send it to him!’.

Months went by and I got a new boyfriend. I moved to Australia with my job and everything was different but he was still in the back of my head. Work sent me on a trip to Adelaide and on the way back to the airport I decided to go to the Adelaide Show, which was basically like a big fair ground. I almost didn’t go but thought I might as well spend half an hour there. I played one of those games where you you have to throw a ball in the hoop to win. Guess what I won?

I won a green monkey cuddly toy!!!!!! At first I was laughing at the Universe. I just found it so funny that it had responded to me in this way. I said ‘OK, if this is real, show me 5 more!’ As I walked around the fair, I kept seeing green monkey prizes from the games! I saw more than 5!

Anyway, I wrote him a letter on the plane back to Sydney that day. It felt right. I wrote the story of how grateful I was for meeting him and that even though the feelings I had for him were both amazing and painful, he had inspired me to follow my passion and write my best songs yet. I knew the at the time, he was actually not in the country, so he wouldn’t get it straight away. I addressed it to someone else in his house to look after for him and said that there was no rush for him to receive it. A few days later my friend told me that he shared an old memory of me and him on his Facebook. I’m not friends with him on there anymore and I have yet to hear from him. But I absolutely know I will and I will keep you posted!
