How The Universe Restored My Marriage
Tears distort my eyesight as I write these lines because the Universe has finally given me the breakthrough I’ve been waiting for a long time.
Seven months ago, a maelstrom of adultery, disrespect, financial strain, and in-law problems brought my less than five-year marriage to an end. I decided to go, a tough decision, exhausted and disheartened. The months that followed were a personal torment. I went through a depressive episode, lost over 20 kg, and started having panic attacks frequently. Trying to balance the demands of being a single mother, my financial situation, and my emotional weariness made me feel as though my life was meaningless.
Nevertheless, I rediscovered The Secret, a book I had purchased four years prior, on the day I really left our house. I had utilized it at the age of 22 to manifest amazing things, such a gorgeous outfit, a dream job, a rare camera, a new laptop, and more. But the pendulum swung back, and my thankfulness had diminished. I went from having a full life to being broke, single, separated, and jobless.
I was struck with emotion when I opened The Secret again and realized how my lack of gratitude had changed my life. Rather than valuing my work and my husband’s efforts, I had been fixated on the things that needed improvement. My existence was now evidence of my lack of thankfulness.
I read The Secret again and immersed myself in its lessons, determined to make a change. I purchased a gratitude notebook and read The Magic, a book that really spoke to me. Rhonda Byrne provided an organized method for practicing thankfulness in her 28-day practice. I chose particular exercises from days 1, 3, 15, and 26 with an emphasis on mend relationships and turning setbacks into opportunities. I made a long list of things I wanted, praying that my marriage would be saved—imagining my husband coming home, showing us his affection, and getting back together.
On some days, my thankfulness made me cry, but on other days, it seemed like a mirage. My determination was destroyed by my husband’s remarks about moving on and the animosity of his relatives. But I continued, accepting thankfulness in the midst of hopelessness.
Then a miracle took place. My husband and I were reunited last Sunday when he arrived home and said the exact words I had longed for. Every time I think about this, I cry because I know that the universe planned this to happen. Even a buddy who had never been in my personal life intervened and helped us come to an understanding. My spouse met my mother, something he vowed he would never do.
I had also posted my ideal job, and the company I had always wanted to work for posted a vacancy that exactly fit my requirements last week. I have no doubt that I’ll get this job.
I consider myself to be the luckiest person alive and am incredibly grateful. The universe has once again demonstrated to me my ability to direct my own destiny. Remembering the miracle that has already happened is the most potent reminder, even in the face of prior skepticism and attempts to find signs. I have faith that all I want will come to pass because I trust the inner voice, the vision in my heart, and the universe.
I say this to you: Have faith that your marriage will be saved, that your relationships will mend, and that your desires will come true. Keep your beliefs unwavering and be clear about your desires. Express your heartfelt thanks for all of life’s little pleasures. Let go then and have faith in the faithfulness of the Universe.
May happiness, adoration, and faith lead the way as you travel.
