The Fire Within All of Us
Submitted by: Elyse
San Diego, CALearn about the fire inside all of us and the love that emanates from that fire if we let it.
The Secret really is a wonderful book. My mother gave me the book a long time ago and I hadn’t picked it up and read it until about seven months ago. It gave me the words to describe what I have always known was inside of me and everyone else in the world. I call it the inner fire that drives us to want to be our very best in everything that we do. It is that burning, glowing life force that we can feel if we take the time to do so. That inner energy that has created some of the most beautiful things imaginable. It gives us the power to give more to the world than we have received in money or items. It’s that voice that is always saying “hey, look at how much you have to offer the world”. This is how I have come to understand The Secret and I couldn’t be happier.
To begin with, I used to have a bad smoking habit. I hated it and realized that it was starting to ruin my life. Every day I told my self that I would quit but I never could. I felt powerless because I couldn’t get control of my addiction. After I read The Secret however, all of that changed. I pictured my lungs and body as being perfectly healthy. I felt healthy and made sure to praise every part of my body. I looked inside and felt my inner fire (you know, the life force that wants the most perfect form of yourself to exist). About a month or two later I was blessed with a solution to my addiction. Every time I would smoke, I would become so sick that I couldn’t see straight. I no longer felt good when smoking because the sickness that I felt overpowered me. I no longer felt the need to smoke and I have not done so since that.
One morning, I awoke and I had this great idea. I have always loved writing and I have been formulating this story in my head for years. I never never knew why I kept going back to this story but it hit me that morning that I should write a book that incorporated my story into it and that conveyed a message of the power of the mind through it. I didn’t know how I was going to write this book but it sounded fun so I thought “why not”. So I began writing the book. In the mean time, the college bonds that my mom had set up for me when I was younger gave me a large sum of money. It turned out that the people who invested money for that particular bond company had invested the money incorrectly and everyone who had invested money into that company got a huge sum of money because someone sued them. As these things happened more and more money was coming to me through strange happenings.
The further I got in my book, the more money I accumulated! Best of all, I sent my book to a publisher and they loved it! It’s now going to be published and it will hopefully inspire people as Rhonda’s book did to
Finally, as if I need more in my life, I found the perfect man. He is literally the best person I have ever met and he’s absolutely amazing. I have never had a better friend or partner and I never will. I have been with him for about a year and a half and I started dating him before I read The Secret. I did however feel my inner when I met him. I felt like I had attracted him into my life through some sort of force that I did not yet understand. I use The Secret with our relationship every day and it works like a charm. I am always thankful for the things he does for me and he gives gratitude in return. We are moving into our dream house and buying our dream car and we recently bought a cute little kitten that gives us more love than I thought
For those of you who are skeptical, think about this. Have you ever felt that need, that urge to be everything you have ever dreamed of? Of course you have. That’s the inner fire. That is the true essence of The Secret. Give into that urge. What’s the worst thing that could happen?
