Everything I share in my professional life - I have learned from personal experience. I have never considered myself an expert in matters of emotional healing, mental health, relationships, and spirituality. While I absolutely love sharing my journey, and using tarot to help others find their way, my first priority has not changed - continuous self-improvement and the pursuit of self-awareness. The biggest stroke of luck was when my passion became my career, and this took me on an entirely different career path than that I was on for most of my life. I learned that tarot reading goes hand in hand with my passion. I stumbled upon tarot as a part of this journey, and I fell in love with everything about it. Ultimately, this lit the fire in my heart that still compels me to not only share my story of how I got here, but to share the ways I got here, the experiences I had, and how I am finally happy from the inside. The story where I realized my worth, my value, and my passion. The story where I finally found that inner peace is the most valuable thing I've ever had. Without realizing it, I stumbled upon the journey that not only saved my life, but ultimately led to the greatest love story ever told - the story of self-love. And that moment turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me, because it finally got my attention - something HAD to change! I finally realized that change would be inevitable - my choice? Would I become bitter or better? Would I accept a lifetime of victimhood, or would I take back my power?įor many years, I wandered around aimlessly, until the moment where I literally lost everything and everyone that was important to me. I have learned that these experiences are always life-changing. The self-inflicted wounds were the result of a lack of self-esteem, a total disregard of my own value, and a deep-rooted belief that this planet would benefit from my absence. My experiences include childhood trauma, romantic heartbreaks, religious trauma, and ultimately doing everything I could to sabotage my own success and self-destruct. Similarly, The Lake House (2006) (2006) deals with an enchanted lake house lived in by two people who are separated by time.My story can be summed up in one word - transformation! Someone who turned pain into power, self-loathing into self-love, self-doubt into self-confidence, inner turmoil into inner peace, and apathy into hope. More recently, there is Somewhere in Time (1980) (1980) and The Love Letter (1998) (1998), both of which deal with a young man who becomes so enchanted with a woman from the past that he finds a way to time travel in order to meet her. In Claudia (1943) (1943), Dorothy McQuire and Robert Young are again paired with each other. Two movies that deal with lonely misfits finding love include Marty (1955) (1955) and Only the Lonely (1991) (1991). In Portrait of Jennie (1948) (1948), a man has an encounter with an enchanting young woman who also turns out to be a ghost. Muir (1947) (1947), similar in many ways to The Enchanted Cottage, except that it features a young widow falling in love with the ghost of an old sea captain who also inhabits the cottage she rents. The key word is 'enchanted'and not 'haunted.' As Laura describes it, haunted is 'restless, easy, afraid it's ugly' whereas enchanted is 'to be happy and gay and beauty.' With that in mind, viewers often recommend The Ghost and Mrs.

Outside the house, a car pulls up, and Oliver and Laura, both looking fit and beautiful, walk toward the door, stopping first to kiss each other.

The final scene ends as the movie begins, with Hillgrove playing piano to a room of guests.

Oliver and Laura decide to write their names on the window with the other lovers who have lived there before them. Mrs Minnett ( Mildred Natwick) reminds them, so long as they look at each other with love, they will always be beautiful to each other. Realizing that their apparent transformation was due to the enchantment of the cottage and that no one else sees them as they see each other, Oliver and Laura come to accept themselves as they are. However, Violet doesn't get the gist of it and reacts in dismay when she sees the young couple. As Oliver and Laura change their clothes, John Hillgrove ( Herbert Marshall) attempts to warn them about Laura and Oliver's transformation. Not long after the wedding, Oliver's mother Violet ( Spring Byington) and stepfather Freddy Price ( Richard Gaines) come to visit.
