My boyfriend and I were given the movie The Secret to watch by his brother, who had rented it from the movie store. My boyfriend watched it alone then said to me, “You gotta see this!” We watched the movie and I got the feel for the idea and created a vision board for myself, but I did not live it and I don’t think I fully understood it until a few weeks ago when I bought the book.

I love reading and that is how I learn best. I have read and re-read the book. I decided that I would draw my long lost friend April back into my life. When I was about 19 or 20 I lost contact with her. She had married and I didn’t know her married name. Throughout the past 9 or 10 years, I have racked my brain trying to come up with a way to locate her. I tried Google, Yellow Pages, an online networking site, but nothing worked. Then I made it my INTENTION, my desire, to put it out into the Universe (this was on a Sunday), and by Tuesday morning I was sure she would manifest in my life again. I logged onto my Facebook account and I thought, “She sent me a friend request.” But no request. I did not doubt that I would find her though. I typed her maiden name into the Facebook search engine and there she was, as if she had been there all along! I had tried this numerous times before and no luck. I KNOW I did this using my knowledge and power from The Secret.

I felt thankful and joyful BEFORE I actually found her, and I imagined catching up with her and laughing about our lives and how they have changed. April and I met when we were 3 and 4 years old. She is the friend I have had the longest and I am so grateful to have her back in my life.

This is only the beginning of all the good things that are coming to me…
