Lost And Found.
Submitted by: Just nikki
Birmingham UK32 yr old single mother of 2 teenagers. Recently set up my own business. Use to consider myself lost and found as I was always up and down, alway watching other people.
I am a complicated person with learning difficulties and too many opinions that often offend people. Last year I hit an all time low and I did not recognise myself . I did not love, respect or care about myself but I painted on my usual hard face, supporting everyone and acting like I was OK.
Then I discovered a book, ‘The Secret’. At first it made me laugh, “What’s this crap I’m reading?”. Then when I got to the end I wanted to read it again but this time I also ordered The Power and The Magic as well as the DVD of The Secret. It was making sense to me and it made me realise that my negative attitude was controlling my environment. More importantly, my negative attitude was affecting my son who is sensitive to emotions.
I practised it half hearted and nothing happened. Then a stranger on the street smiled at me and I saw The Magic in that stranger’s smile! I believed it and I felt it! So this time I did not just practice it, I was really grateful and I started to change. I appreciated everything and everyone. My son’s behaviour got better. I started to believed in myself enough to start my own business fearlessly.
So yes, I am lost and found, but I embrace it and while I am still a working progress, I want to say thank you for finding me.
