I am deeply grateful for Christian Science and for all of the good that the study of Christian Science has brought to my experience.
While I was touring with a ballet company, I became so despondent that I did not care about anything. I had spasmodically attended a Christian Science Sunday School, and fortunately I thought to call a practitioner, who lovingly went to work for me. I awakened in the middle of the night, and the thought, "Divine Love always has met and always will meet every human need" (Science and Health, p. 494), came to me very clearly. I was free, but I did not study. The assurance gained from that healing lasted for a while, but as time went on, I became despondent again and left the company. I did not care about anything. My parents were kind enough to take me to a summer place where there was a Christian Science Reading Room. I studied every day, and one day I just left that room healed, happy, free. The thought that true self-consciousness is consciousness of one Mind was the thought that released me.
I started to work in the field of television and theater, and I'm grateful to say that I have almost never been unemployed in a business where the beliefs of unemployment are very active.
