About 6 months ago I was feeling helpless. I wanted to move to a new house. I was trying to find a ‘house swap’ and I was getting nowhere. So many people were letting me down. My family really needed this swap and it felt heartbreaking that nothing was happening.

After reading The Secret, I decided to take some action. I bought a Christmas decoration that said ‘First Christmas In Our New Home 2023’. I hung it by my bed and every night I looked at it and imagined it hanging on a Christmas tree in our new home. I wanted a bungalow but also knew that they were very hard to get. Still, I allowed myself to believe that it was possible.

A month later, I got inspired to contact someone who had declined to do a house swap two years ago. I had just woke up from a sleep and just felt this overwhelming need to message them again. They agreed to view our house. And then they agreed to do a swap!

Five months later, we have just moved into our dream home bungalow! The decoration is the pride of place hanging on the tree. It was our Christmas miracle!
