The woman who changed me!

I entered a building so uniquely adorned, spacious and brightly painted. I am required to leave behind my cellphone and other electronic gadgets with me, register for the 4 evening seminar(monday, tues, thursday and friday). The woman then gave me a temporary ID after I presented to her my ID card and at exactly 6pm everyone should already be inside this room where the walling is curiously hieroglyphics of ancient Egypt. At the front center is a wide blackboard and seems like its an auditorium class of a university.

I thought what am I here for.... but everyone filled the room and there even is not enough chairs to fill the crowd so some have to stand at the side and back of the room. Then a woman walked thru from a small door on the back of the left side corner of the room, in a delicately white pants and dress, her hair is so attractively raised like she just came from a salon, she has this eyes so distinct and well browed, and fear gripped me that I thought I saw a witch in sheeps clothing. Oh my gosh! is she going to hypnotize us in the room? She was like a witch I dreaded when I was a child from all those fairy tales.

She holds a cordless microphone and began to introduce herself as Charley Barretto emphasizing the E in her name Charley, a resounding beautiful voice I've ever heard marveled into my ears. Soft spoken and with her smile I somehow felt a bit relaxed. She then called attention to those who were there for the very first time and she tried to play along our emotions that when certainly viewed her as a with(my golly, she can even read our minds).

She discussed the principles of life, the Science of Mind and Man Center is all about, the sphere of the Universe, our god within, the conscious and the sub-conscious mind, the power of thoughts and things, belief, every positive ideas becomes the visible.

Every night for 4 to 5 hours she would only talk how we can be prosperous, abundant, rich, powerful, its tapping thru the sub-conscious being within ourselves. and showing us the light to shine our path into a more abundant beingness.

It was already a friday night, the last evening of the 4 day seminar, somehow I understood slowly the manner by which to conquer my fear and doubts. But tonight its all going to be different coz I will either walk out of this place still the same or a changed man in mind and heart and soul.

As she put down her microphone and calls for the closing of her seminar, she walks and vanishes into the confines of her private room. I felt a changed man, I saw a new meaning and hope for living. I saw her not as she first came in 5 nights ago when I first had a glimpse of her, a bewitching hag. Tonight I saw her as the light and the angelic beauty of a woman I would love to meet again.

For many years I continued to attend the class of Ms. Charley Barretto which rarely happens once or twice every year.

I am grateful for the time I was able to listen and attend her class, without those nuggets of her thoughts, I would have viewed life in a different sphere and am proud to have acquired the wisdom from a Charley Barretto, The Science of Mind.

I'm a true blue Sommist.
