I had begged my parents to get me a dog for years but they always said no because they did not have enough money and they didn’t want the responsibility of a dog. I could not think of any way to persuade them to get me a dog.

However, at the end of June I discovered the law of attraction where you can use methods like visualization to bring your desires to life! After researching about it for a few days I decided to see if it worked for myself.

Every night before I went to sleep, I would get out a notebook and write in a journal where I would pretend I had a dog. I wrote down all my favourite details about having a dog and how grateful I am for this opportunity. Then, before I went to sleep ,I would visualize having my dream dog, taking it on walks, feeding it, going to sleep and waking up with a dog.

After 8 days of this, my sister and I decided to write a letter to my dad. We wrote a 4 page letter explaining why we think we should have a dog and explaining what his life would be like if he never had his pet dog when he was our age. Usually when I spoke to my dad about getting a dog he would instantly say negative things but this time he did not say anything, only that he will talk to my mum about it.

The next day, my parents finally said that they would allow me to have a dog if I was financially responsible for it. I had no idea how I was going to do this since I had no job and no source of income. My sister came up with the idea that she pays for it since she already had a job. So 10 days after I began to try to manifest a dog, we were on our way to get my dream dog!

I wanted to share my story because no matter what, you should always have hope and believe in the Universe. No matter what people say or think, always be hopeful. People would say to me that I would never get a dog and look at me now! Thank you!
