Montreal, CanadaA young woman with great new self-esteem and an amazing future husband.
I first want to thank Rhonda Byrne and her all of her team for publishing The Secret so that it can help millions of people around the world.
So, here is my story. I am a Sri Lankan young woman who met the Secret book 1 year ago. After getting that book, in all of my areas, there were many changes in a positive way. That was how the love of my life came into my life at our workplace. We fell in love. I was healing his heart because of his past heartbreak. Everything was great until I started to doubt him constantly, complaining because he did not give me enough attention I started to think negative thoughts and things about our relationship. Things got complicated between us to the point his family found out about our love. Unlike my parents who are okay with love, his parents were very strict about it. Still, he held on to me no matter what. But, instead of being grateful, I kept on thinking about my fear of what would happen if he would breakup with me.
Eventually, he did break up with me and in a very bad way a few weeks ago. All of my friends were cheering me up, brainwashing me that he just used me as a rebound, or that he never had the courage to keep on fighting for me. At that moment I was confused. I calmed myself and started to think about the beginning of our relationship and up until the breakup.
That is when it hit me in my head. All this time, I getting more negative, ungrateful and I destroyed my own self-esteem. I decided to change everything around me. I started to write my gratitude journal every day. I wrote a letter of apology to my boyfriend in my gratitude journal. Yes, I did cry from time to time. But, I always found a way to build back my positive thoughts. I sent gratitude to his parents, too. At the same time, I was focusing on myself, enjoy my time with my friends, build back my self-esteem and focusing on my studies.
Three weeks after the breakup as I was having alone time with myself, my boyfriend called me. He calls me and cries for a good 15 minutes and repeats so many times how he still loves me and can’t live without me. We spoke for an hour and he finally was ready to stand up to his parents. A few days after, he sent me a message that his mother wants to have a talk with me. I did get stressed a little. But, I believed in the Universe. Before going down to meet her, I thanked the Universe for the wonderful time I would be spending with his mother. Just like I visualized, I met his mother at a coffee shop and we spoke for few hours while my boyfriend was in the car waiting for us.
In the end, it was all good news! She appreciated me very much. The next day, he called me and announces the great news that his family agreed to our love. Since, my parents still did not know, his family wanted us to limit our meetings, but we were allowed to start texting each other and calling every night! At the same time, me and my boyfriend were also healing the damage that happened in our relationship. Now, we are both in love and committed to each other. He calls me “Wifey” every second and he finally publicized our relationship to all of his friends!!!
The Secret is amazing. For those who have had a hard time convincing your parents to keep your lover in your life, hopefully my story will inspire you guys to hope and keep your faith!
Thank you Universe!
