It's like I've been reborn! This book, The Secret, was a reminder of all the good things I have in my life. I'm grateful for myself, for the nature surrounding me, the gorgeous sky outside my window, my family, my friends, my healthy body, laughter, compassion, the feeling of happiness, having experienced love, the ability to create beautiful artwork, a heart full of love, and all the opportunities that are coming my way. I'm grateful for the gift of sight, hearing, touch, and overall the gift to experience the world with all my senses. I feel as if I've spent the 6 months lost because my mind was in a rut. I forgot how to appreciate the privileges, things, and people in my life, as well as myself. The ability to respect and love myself is what I am most grateful for. I'm thankful this book came my way. Life is so beautiful and I'm anticipating all the experiences that I had previously told myself were impossible. I'm going to be the best human being I can possibly be.

Love,

Vivian
