The Secret

I was watching Oprah and they had this episode on the "Secret". This episode sparked so many responses that a week later they had a follow up episode. She claimed this episode will change your life. Well the basic concept of this message(atleast that's what I got from it) is that you are energy. And whatever energy you put into the world, whether it's conscious or subconscious is the reason you live the life you lead. So if you're wondering why things happen. It's you. It's what you put out into the world. So you're wondering "why me?" well, it's you. You did it. This one woman was concerned about how this aligns with Christianity (Oprah was thinking the same thing to herself but I guess was a little intimidated about expressing this)
"Pray believing that ye have. And then you are able to receive."Is what the example the man used from the Bible. (He then claimed that the Jesus meant heaven being "a place within us" and not exactly a place we would go in the afterlife....but I have to disagree.)
So then Oprah talks about how she get's so many questions about success. "How can I be as successful as you?" "How can I be this rich." and she says she didn't intend to make so much money, she just did what she loved and this is the benefit she reaped from it. The same with Bill Gates, who she knows personally, he started with an idea in his garage and there it is. It's the passion that drives you and you may make money from it, and you may not. But in the meantime you are doing what you want to do..
My passion is God, writing, acting, comedy, true kindness. Let's see where that takes me.
