A few months ago I had a whirlwind romance with a man named Jack. The attraction I felt to him was so powerful, every time I saw him my heart hammered against my ribs and my legs turned to jelly.

We were together for 3 months, but spent a lot of our time separated because he worked weeks at a time away from home, fishing on a vessel, in very dangerous conditions. We were only able to talk about once a week, when he was in port, and upon returning home he broke the news to me that he just couldn’t handle being in a relationship.

I was crushed. I immediately tried to erase him from my life; I erased all his texts, his voice mails, e-mails, and anything he had given me. I completely cut contact with him and tried my best to forget about him. But no matter how hard I tried, he still crossed my mind every single day.

A month had passed when I decided to turn to the Secret. I had used it several times before, and decided to use it again. I found the DVD was always very inspiring, and it always managed to lift my spirits, no matter how many times I watched it.

A few days after watching it I received a text from my friend, Daniel. Daniel was friends with Jack, and told me that Jack had broken up with me because he never really knew what I wanted, and he had wished I had been more open with him. He also mentioned that Jack didn’t want anything more to do with me. At first I was hurt that he didn’t want anything to do with me, but suddenly I felt determined.

After reading the text I was inspired to e-mail Jack. In the e-mail I explained to him that Daniel had revealed to me the real reason behind our break-up. With a lot of courage I boldly wrote, “You said you never knew what I wanted… well, it’s quite simple. All I wanted was you; that’s it, that’s all. Just you… flaws and all.” I finished the e-mail by wishing him a good trip to sea and sent it with a feeling of hope.

I really started putting the Secret into use after I sent the e-mail. I told myself not to worry if I was going to hear from him, or how I was ever going to see him again when he supposedly didn’t want anything to do with me – I just knew it was going to happen. I put it in God’s hands, and told myself God would take care of it for me.

The very next day as I was checking my e-mails, I received one from Jack. He asked to see me whenever I was available. We made plans to meet the next day, after I was finished work.

When I went to visit him I wasn’t really sure what to expect, but I felt overwhelmed with happiness as I knocked on his door. I sat down on the couch next to him, and he hauled me down beside him and held me. It was the most amazing feeling in the world.

That was just a few short days ago =) Our story continues, and it might be a long road, but I have faith in God and the LOA to make it happen. I’ve seen what can happen with unwavering faith, and I believe there are bigger and brighter things in my future.

Thank you so much to Rhonda and the team behind the making of The Secret. Without this special gift I never would have known the feeling of true happiness.
