The Secret Of Living
Submitted by: Cindy Tran
Melbourne, VictoriaA student in high school, with no socializing skills but proud of what she is, regardless of what anyone else thinks.
Ever since I was 9 years old there were some questions I always asked myself.
Why am I here? Why do I exist? What is my purpose to live? Watching film, movies and cartoons I know that everyone has a reason for living and that they are living up to it. And that is when I gave a huge thought, ” What is my reason?” I told by self “I will only keep myself alive to find my reason, and if I can’t find my reason by the end of high school, then ill suicide.”
But then in year 8, a teacher was reading a book. Curious, I asked what she was reading and then she told me about The Secret and her stories.
I did not believe her at all, but every time that teacher came in, she always has The Secret, so I gave it a try.
Knowing my lack of reading, I only read a couple of pages, did what it told me, left it alone and never cared about it.
But without knowing, when my life is going negative, somehow I could feel that The Secret was calling back to me.
And then without knowing how, I believed, and my life turned around. I never found my reason for living, but the life I am in now is better that it was in the past.
