I am responsible for what I see. I choose the feelings I experience and decide the goal I want to achieve. And everything that seems to happen to me, I have asked for it, and it is given to me just as I requested. Do not deceive yourself any longer by thinking that you are powerless in the face of what is done to you. Simply acknowledge that you were mistaken, and all the effects of your errors will disappear. -A Course in Miracles

The Miracle of Healing and the Search for the Meaning of Life.

It all began when I was diagnosed with a liver disease and had to be hospitalized. The situation was serious for my health, and I was very worried, as well as my family who was with me at that time. The night before my surgery, while lying in the hospital bed, something strange happened.

Suddenly, I felt a warm and loving presence around me. It was as if someone or something was there to comfort and reassure me. I closed my eyes, and without falling asleep, I heard a voice within me, in a way that I can't quite explain. I was given the opportunity to decide whether I wanted to continue living.

It was a strange communication because I had never felt anything like it before, but what happened next was even more astonishing. I was aware that this question was not coming from my mind but from a higher power, something Divine. I answered affirmatively, holding onto life because I still had much to live for, many things to learn and experience. Immediately after, I felt as if the illness was dissolving from my body. It was as if a Miracle had occurred.

After that experience, without a doubt, I began to see life in a different way. Many questions arose after feeling that there was something beyond what I could see and understand at that moment. I felt that there was a spiritual world that couldn't be explained by science or reason.

I started to become interested in different religions and spiritual philosophies, reading about topics like life after death, the nature of the universe, consciousness, among others.

Little by little, I came to understand that there was much more than what meets the eye. I realized that the universe is an interconnected web of energy and that we are all connected at a very deep level. I continued to see life in a more positive and compassionate way. I concluded that love and compassion are the most powerful forces in the universe and should be the foundation of our lives.

Since then, I have continued to explore my true self. I have found that there are many valuable teachings in different spiritual traditions, and each of them has something to teach us. I have come to realize that spirituality is not something that can be learned from a book or a single experience, but rather it is an ongoing path of personal growth and development.

My experience was a turning point in my life. It opened my eyes to the beauty and depth of spirituality and inspired me to continue exploring more about myself, life, the universe, and, above all, to seek God.

In the search for peace and connection.

For many years, I have been in search of answers. I had gone through various emotional challenges, anxiety, and depression that affected my daily life and relationships with loved ones. I sought answers within the Catholic religion, but I couldn't find a quick solution. That's when I discovered A Course in Miracles.

At first, I was skeptical, but as I read the book and participated in a study group, I began to understand the importance of practicing forgiveness and how it can free the mind and heart from the burden of the past.

One of the biggest challenges in my life was improving my relationships, including my romantic partnership. I had always been very critical and demanding of myself, which often led me to judge and blame others. However, as I delved deeper into the Course, I started to grasp the idea that we are all equal, that we all have the same Divine Self within us, and that our differences are only illusions of the mind.

This understanding allowed me to see others from a different perspective and start practicing forgiveness in my life. I began to release my mind from the judgments and blame that had tormented me for so long, and I started to feel a sense of inner peace that I had never experienced before.

A Course in Miracles has not only helped me find that peace but also improve my relationships with others by freeing me from the judgments and blame that had kept me bound. I have learned that forgiveness is the key. I am grateful for having found this path and for the beings who have guided me along the way.
