Have You Seen 'The Secret' yet...??

So it’s out. The secret is out in a big way. Everyone is talking about it. After years, of being traded in exclusive communities, it is now making its ground-breaking debut among the masses.
The self-help community, motivational speakers, psychologists, and the more enlightened among us have said it for years: think positively, believe in your dreams, be kind to yourself, visualize your goals, problem-solve. But it had to become a secret to become big, it had to become science to become truth, it had to become a movie to reach the living-room. The Law of attraction. But whatever it takes, right?

Call it repetitive, amateurish, pseudo-scientific, it did something that counts in today’s world. It hit like a giant snowball, and as it is rolling on and on it is becoming bigger and bigger and its generating truck loads of dollars. Good thinking. Wrapped for easy consumption this simple message has been swallowed by millions of viewers world-wide, as it seems. Will it be digested is the question.
Will it make people kinder, more giving, enlightened, and generally more happy is what I wonder. It would be a world revolution if it did. Let’s visualize, let’s make the positive energy flow. I am all for it.
