The Dance
Submitted by: Ashley S.
CanadaMy name is Ashley, I live in Canada, and I'm just starting to realize the real power of the Secret.... my next wish is a big one, and I'm excited to see how it turns out...
I was 16 years old when I used the Secret for the first time, without even realizing it.
I had just gotten out of a rough relationship with an emotionally abusive boyfriend and was complaining to my older brother and his best friend, Mitch (whom I had always had a crush on), about how I had rotten luck with guys. The Valentines Dance was fast approaching and going to the dance without a date seemed like an unbearable fate at the age of 16. I secretly wished Mitch would take me but I knew I didn’t stand a chance because he was 6 years my senior, and had also been dating a local beauty queen for the past 4 years.
That’s when I started using the Secret without realizing it. Every night before I went to bed I envisioned Mitch taking me to the Valentines dance. I even imagined us dancing to “Stairway to Heaven”, which was Mitch’s favourite song.
Over the next few days Mitch and I had started to hang out more and more, and things started to get rough with his long-term girlfriend. They rarely saw each other since they lived in different towns, and she abruptly decided to end their relationship. I was shocked, because I had never consciously thought that their 4 year relationship would end.
A few short days later I mentioned to my brother that the Valentines dance was only a few days away and that I had no date. “Mitch will take you!” My brother said with a smile. I didn’t believe him at first, but a short while later Mitch asked me himself.
The dance was EXACTLY how I had envisioned it, and we even danced to “Stairway to Heaven”, just like I had imagined.
We were together for 2 years after that night… it just goes to show how well the Secret really works!
