My Story…..

After experiencing a war, and all of its horror in my native country of Central Africa, I spent years of my life living in terror and fear. I felt trapped, life felt uncertain and really shaky. The fear of the unknown led me to flee the Country that I loved so much.

I left Africa and moved to Canada thinking that perhaps a change of country would alleviate my suffering. I thought that living in Canada far away from Africa would erase all the atrocity and terror that was living inside me. Did moving thousands of miles away help? To a certain extent it did. But I was still suffering through panic attacks. I even developed asthma, which I believe was the physical manifestation of all that I had seen and internalized.

My turning point…..

I was so sick and tired of the fear and terror that was embedded in my heart and soul. I knew that something within ME had to change. I started to awaken to the idea that the shift that I longed to occur was bigger than me. I remember praying and asking God to show me the way. About a week or so after that very painful plea, I saw a commercial for the Oprah Winfrey Show that talked about an upcoming show on the movie The Secret. But I wasn’t interested in listening to other people’ secrets. I didn’t even remember to watch. Ironically a month later while at the public library I happened to come across the dvd of The Secret. I took it home, watched it, and had numerous AHA moments. That movie was a turning point for me. I got it. I finally understood that what I was looking for had nothing to do with my geographical location or other people. Safety, love, security and abundance are within me. I also learned that forgiveness is not about the other person or situation. Forgiveness is about me. I made the decision. I was ready to step into my power.

Here is what i did:
1. I made a decision to find and trust a power bigger than me within
2. I realised that my safety and security comes from within: What I believe.
3. love and forgiveness was what remained
4. I took total responsibility for my life: my emotions, feelings, actions and experiences: I let go of blame
