Finally Learned To Let It Go.

sweden26 year old girl who loves her life.
I am thrilled to share my story here today! Over the past few years, I have read numerous stories that have given me hope and joy, and I always knew that one day I would share my own. And now, that day has finally come!
I have known about The Secret for four years now, but I finally learned how it works in the last two years. I’ve had some rough years, but since I changed the way I thought, life has dramatically turned around.
Four years ago, I was left by my boyfriend whom I lived together with. He had met someone else, and I was devastated, but I also knew in my heart that he wasn’t good for me. He made me feel bad about myself, often commenting on my looks and personality in a negative way and I believed that I was useless. I thought he was right.
Then, shortly after, my life started to fall apart. I was raped by a person that was very close to me. I had no place to live and had to move back in with my parents. I failed in my class and barely had the energy to work. Money was a big problem, too. I started going to therapy because I was so depressed and didn’t want to live anymore. My therapist helped me a lot and was a really genuinely good person. Then he passed away, and I fell even further into depression. I gained 23 kg because of all the medicine I had to take, I was so broken both mentally and physically.
Then I decided to change. I simply couldn’t feel any worse than I already did and decided that I wanted to live my life and be happy again. I started to believe and use The Secret.
Though it was hard at first, and I had many bad days, something happened to me. I knew that it could get better, and I simply could not give up. I made a vision board, where I wrote down the address of where I wanted to live. I put up pictures of strong women I admired, happy couples, and my dream body. I looked at it every night before falling asleep.
Since then, I have lost all the weight I gained, stopped taking my depression medicines, and started to believe. People asked me if I was in love because I was glowing. But I was just so thankful for everything in my life that I had previously missed out on because I was just depressed and bitter and felt sorry for myself. And now it was like my eyes had opened for the very first time. I was present and enjoyed being with my family and all of my close friends, and I just felt so loved, blessed, and thankful. I even cried tears of joy when I realized how much love and happiness I had in my life. I was thankful to be alive and to have survived everything that had happened in the past. Work was going great, I had a fantastic new apartment just a five-minute walk from work, and I felt strong and truly loved myself. I had financial security, and everything was going well.
Even if I had bad days and doubts, my inner thoughts had changed. When I started loving myself, the right guy came along. I had already met him two years earlier and liked him, but since my frequency was so “bad” back then, nothing happened. Then we met at a party and we have been dating since last fall. I was the most happy I’ve ever been and felt like I was literally dreaming. He was everything I wanted: warm, fun, and sweet, and he made me feel like the best version of myself.
Then two weeks ago, my partner told me that he wasn’t sure how he felt about me. We decided to take a break, but after one week, he broke up with me, claiming that he wasn’t in love. However, I didn’t believe him since I was sure that he was the love of my life, and I was devastated. But I remained calm this time, knowing that we met for a reason, and he was everything I had visualized. I had manifested all the other things on my vision board, and I knew this was right. I felt it in my heart. Initially, I was sad and doubted myself, thinking that he had forgotten about me and wasn’t in love with me. I wanted to call him because I missed him so much. But then I remembered to stop and became calm. I thought about everything beautiful we had together, all his best qualities, and how happy he made me. I trusted the Universe and let it go, knowing that you can’t force love. Just be calm and attract it, and the Universe will bring him back.
Yesterday was the first day I felt really happy because I knew and believed in our love. I stopped looking at my phone like I was obsessed and waiting to hear from him. I joked with my coworkers and I was the normal, happy me again. I was calm and trusted the Universe. When I came home, I fell asleep on my couch, and when I woke up, there was a text message from him. I knew it would happen eventually, but this fast? I was ecstatic and felt like it was unreal.
We met in a park, and when he took me in his arms and kissed me, I was so happy and grateful that I felt like I was flying! He said that everything felt wrong without me, had tears in his eyes, and told me how much he wanted to be with me and how beautiful I was. Now he has left for work, and I am writing this story. I believe in the beauty of life and that you can have, do, or be anything you want. Even if I fall sometimes, it doesn’t take two years to get back. This time, it only took four days to manifest because I completely trust the Universe and life. I know in my heart that we will stay together, continue to grow in our relationship and that he is the future father of my children. I feel blessed and want to thank everyone who has shared their story here and helped me believe, even when I was at my lowest. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I hope my story will inspire someone who is going through a rough time to believe that if it can change for me, it can and will change for them. No matter what has happened, you can turn it around. Be grateful for what you have, no matter how “small” it seems, make a vision board, focus on what you want, and then let it go. I promise it will work! I wish all of you love and happiness. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
