My friend had a very hurtful childhood. She always lived with the feeling that her parents never loved her. In fact, she always felt she was not worth enough. After her marriage, like many Indian women, she settled down with her husband and kids and took care of them well. However, she never lived for herself and never found time for herself. When we became friends, I saw her as a person with very low self-esteem who never thought highly of herself.

After a couple of years of me sharing The Secret with her, she decided to spend time with herself, understand her likes, her desires, and to start working on herself.

Within a month, she has become confident and positive and gained self-respect. She started loving herself more and more each day. Yesterday was her birthday, and she got the biggest surprise. All her cousins who lived away from her, called to wish her a happy birthday. Her mom, who had never been close to her, said she got her a necklace which she had always wanted. Her husband sent her a very touching birthday message, expressing how much he loved and respected her. He had never done this before, so this was nothing less than magic for her.

I am so happy for my friend that I could not help but share this story with the whole world so that she can receive blessings from all of you to have a life full of love, care, understanding, and an abundance of happiness.

Thank you so very much to Rhonda Byrne. It is because of you that I could help my friend. Thank you to all the people who share their stories here and motivate and inspire me whenever I feel low. Thank you and may God bless you all!
