My Sister and I (right). |
My life a few years ago looked good on paper, but inside, I was hiding a big secret; I was suffering from a severe depression that had been going on for years. Although I had traveled all over the world, married the man of my dreams, and had friends and family who loved me, I was a person that was empty inside. I felt alone, confused, sad, and constantly found myself questioning the meaning of my life and of life in general. I wanted out. Life was a burden too big to bare. Just when I had lost all hope and was ready to accept my misery, I read a book called "The Power of Now". The experiences that immediately followed opened my eyes to a world I had never known existed. This was a world where worry didn't exist, stress was nothing but a 6-letter word, and love was boundless and present at all times. Everything had meaning again, and I was living a life of happiness that every single person on this planet deserves. Life was finally good :) The most amazing realization was that life had always been good! I just chose not to believe it.
After my spiritual experience, I continued to dig deeper to see what other tools and information I could find to help myself and others. There was so much more to life than I had allowed myself to see. I understood that I was the one ultimately in charge of my happiness, not the external world. I had become so comfortable with blaming everyone and everything else that I failed to see the true culprit.
I feel a compulsion to share what I have learned with anyone and everyone that will. So many of us walk around in a daze, asking ourselves, "Is this all there is"? From experience I can say that there is so much more to life than we can ever dream! Life is meant to be lived with soul, are you ready to start living?
