THE SECRET SAVED MY LIFE!
Submitted by: Tracy
Canary IslandsLike so many others, I was an abused and unwanted child. Suicide, eating disorders, and other self-harm became my safety net. I carried these feelings of worthlessness and zero self-esteem into my adult life.
I threw myself into nursing, into always caring for others, as there was no one there for me. I have always had wonderful girlfriends but terrible relationships with men. My ex-husband was a serial adulterer, and my boyfriend also betrayed me. I adore my son but felt that I was not a good mother and that he deserved so much more.
At a time when suicide was a serious consideration and I simply could not see a way to keep functioning, a dear friend recommended The Secret. This recommendation literally saved my life. I read it, reread it, and to this day I still read a chapter daily as part of my new way of living. It took me a while to understand and to begin to learn how to live. I had to work very hard at first to change my way of thinking. But there is simply no correlation between my old life and my life today. I start each day with a smile and a prayer of thanks. I am so happy, and each day it is a joy to know that no one is going to take it away, because the happier I am, the more happiness I receive. I keep a daily diary as well as a vision board, and I am so grateful for all the wonderful people in my life. This includes a fabulous man who loves me so much and, as importantly, I am able to love in return. I have also learned how to love myself, which was a very difficult task. My whole life, at work and at home, is now so complete and satisfying, and I am very blessed with so much love in all areas of my life.
I have also given copies of The Secret to various friends of mine so that others can know just how beautiful life can be.
