There are enduring, universal, eternal truths that lead to happy, spiritually successful lives. Anyone can use them to be happy or happier. What could be more wonderful or beneficial than sharing the secrets to true happiness?Marly Manning left her corporate job to devote her life to sharing these truths. She wanted to help the world be a happier, more compassionate, caring place. She knew goodness and virtue are the basis for all happiness.
Powerful economic forces allied against her. A great deal of money is made world wide treating depression, emotional distress and psychological disease.
In the United States alone, more than 11 million prescriptions are written annually for for anti depressants, mood enhancers and stabilizers. Legions of psychotherapists and psychologists derive their livelihood from treating these diseases.
Would powerful pharmaceutical companies and psychotherapy groups allow these simple but very powerful happiness insights and truths to be made public?
A few simple truth can bring happiness to the entire world. They are powerful insights which have a major impact on how people think and feel. Would Marly be allowed to share them?
A large, sophisticated organized crime ring targeted Marly's company for take over, they wanted the happiness secrets for themselves. They knew how much money could be made on happiness and they had to protect their client's interests.
They were greedy, they only had a few of Marly's powerful insights, they wanted them all. They had to prevent her from going public, keep her working, isolated and alone.
They knew Marly would never allow the happiness wisdom that had been given to her freely for the good of the world to be used for dishonest, devious or manipulative purposes.
The organized crime ring was skilled at the ultimate identity theft, creating credible look alike people who would eagerly trade up to a new identity, a better life, a nice job and follow their orders implicitly. The organized crime ring regularly targeted prominent, problem or well placed single people for replacement.
A real estate mogul took a long vacation, a replacement returned instead. The business and cash flows were already well established. All the replacement would have to do is manage them and send a percentage to the crime ring. They gradually created a Stepford Society of people who were loyal and obedient only to them.
Marly knew what they had planned, they had paraded their look alikes in front of her.
A longtime acquaintance named CiCi left for a three week vacation, a replacement recovering from plastic surgery returned in her place. She drove CiCi's car and moved into CiCi's condo. The phony had none of CiCi’s spiritual beauty, speech patterns, habits or behaviors. CiCi was alone, there was no one to complain.
The look alike regularly tried to contact Marly, to intimidate and harass her by hinting this would be her fate as well. Marly knew she had to be crafty and difficult to duplicate to survive.
Marly called them The Goons. They'd sent people to threaten and harass her. Computers were sabotaged, there were regular thefts from her office, home and van.
The Goons seemed to have ties with government Defense and Homeland Security contractors. They used hooks built into the nations communications systems for security monitoring to intercept, block and reroute telephone calls and internet traffic.
The Swap is Marly’s story of how determination to carry her happiness message to the world eventually propelled her to triumph over the organized crime ring that threatened to destroy her.
