The Secret

A bizarre thing happened back in December. I was at a consultation at this florist & while I was waiting, the caretaker of the house made small-talk with me. She was telling me about this book she just read. At first I was just being polite because this lady sounded like she got into some weird new age stuff. She describe to me that the universe is working with us & gives back to us what we project onto it. I think it was the way that she described that made her sound a little loopy. However, after trying to shift through the strange stuff, I thought about the core part of her story. That we have the individual power to make things happen in our lives, whether it be good or bad. That we need to know how to think in order to attract what we actually want. Easier said than done.

Tonight I was trying to catch up on all my dvr recordings. Oprah did a show on the dvd & book entitled, "The Secret." She made it sound like if I knew this secret, I could have everything I ever wanted. After listening for a bit, I realized that this was the same thing that other lady was telling me about. Somehow, Oprah & her panel of people made it make sense. They said that we can't have room for the good if we can't be grateful for what we already have. We have to change our thoughts, feelings & actions. In order for us to receive, we must be ready to also let go. Letting go of our bitterness & our mistakes. Once again, easier said than done.
