My Hay House family and I have received countless letters over the years that have shared how I inspired another person to heal his or her own life (just as so many individuals have inspired me on my own healing journey). So, we thought it would be truly powerful and possibly life-changing to compile some of these amazing letters in one volume: Modern-Day Miracles.

Our hope is that they will provide you, the reader, with comfort, solace, and motivation—and point out in a concrete way that one person can be a catalyst for healing the world. I have been privileged to fulfill this role . . . and you can do it in your own life, too!

Think about the ways in which your own thoughts, conversations, actions, and intentions can impact others in a positive way . . . because that’s what life on this planet is all about. Lighting one candle in the darkness has the power to light another, and then another, and on and on it goes. . . .

Recently, I learned that my books have sold 50 million copies worldwide. I imagine 50 million candles lighting the way for another 50 million, and so on. How powerful each of our candles is! Together, we can light up the entire world.
