"It’s beautiful, and I’m so grateful"

It all started in late December of 2016.... I was leading a “successful” life, but was unhappy. I had just gotten married, but I didn’t know how to love my wife (nor myself), I was working myself to death to maintain a “successful” status in the eyes of friends and family, and I had a “support” network of people who didn’t have my best interests at heart. And over that holiday break, I decided enough was enough!...
And that was when I came across Vishen’s The Code of the Extraordinary Mind.... which I literally couldn’t put down, because it felt as though it was written for specifically me (perhaps it was!)....
Which then lead me wanting to learn more about and experience ... A-Fest! Who were these amazing, beautiful people? What wonderful things could I learn from them? And what could I share? And the costume parties !!!
Well, I’ll fast forward to where I am today... 12 months after my first A-Fest and 17 months after reading The Code... I see the world in a completely different way, and I live my life in a completely different way. It’s beautiful, and I’m so grateful.
For those of you who are new to A-Fest... I’m so happy for you. You’re in for a treat! Get ready!
And for those returning, I can’t wait to see your beautiful, smiling faces! Time for some A-fest hugs!!
Thank you Vishen and my A-Fest family!
