Before I begin, I want to give a huge thank you to the author of The Secret as it completely changed my life. I feel like a new person who sees nothing but positivity and I am looking forward to what is to come.

On March 20th my boyfriend and I were having issues. He decided to cut me loose and broke up with me. Our parents met and we all talked the following day and everyone recommended to him that he take some time to think about his decision and come to an answer. Three days later, he did not change his mind. I begged him to think about it for a few more days and he did. On March 25 he officially broke up with me. The following day was his birthday and he broke up with me over the phone and told me to cancel everything I had planned. His birthday party was cancelled by his mom and he went to another town for the weekend to stay with his aunt. I was broken. I was hurting. I knew that this boy was meant to be with me and I thought that maybe he was not in the right headspace. I gave him time and I left him alone. No contact. I packed his things out of my room into a bag and placed them in my prayer room. I needed my room to not be the thing that made me think of him so much.

The following day I started working on a way to get him back. I could not bring up the courage to say to him “happy birthday.” That was awful of me but I was grieving heavily. I thought after that phone call, he would not want me anymore and I wanted to give him his space. I respected that.

I followed the 55 x 5 manifestation technique and by the fifth day, nothing happened. I tried to not let that bring me down but it was hard. Then my mom gifted me the book The Secret and I read it every night. To my surprise, it made me feel better. I stopped crying and I did everything I needed to do.

I started giving my then ex-boyfriend gratitude for everything I was thankful for. I loved this man. I started praying for us and visualizing our future. It calmed me down at night and I received rest. I wrote in my new journal that I forgave him and that I loved him. I started thinking about myself and loving myself in that process. I gave gratitude to the Universe and said everything I was thankful for every single morning.

I created a vision board online that was on my desktop and I looked at it every day. It started to heal me. I asked for him to come to me by April 18 but to my great surprise, he was at my door within three days of my asking!

This book is no joke. This book will be a part of my life for the rest of my life. You can manifest anything your heart desires. Let go, stay calm, and trust this beautiful process.
