'secret'


A friend I met recently at yahoo messenger spoke to me about this DVD that’s apparently changed his lives (I can’t say changed his lives in whole, maybe changed his point of view). The ‘secret’ they called it. Definitely I remembered talking about that certain DVD to other friend I talked earlier. I remember it clearly because it was when I said I am a negative person, then he came endorsing the ‘secret’ to me which I directly said no to. And so, when I heard this friend hand over the idea again, I was ready to say no when he shut me up and talk and talk and talk about this ‘secret’ and how it changed his life point of view and that it made him a whole new person. He really scared me, I never see him in such situation, a blabber I might say. Never before, for 11 years we’ve been friend, I saw his side of stubbornness. Intrigued (and scared a bit), I googled it. ‘The law of attraction’ was the main key to this ‘secret’, and that was the best I could get. He insisted that I should buy the book and better yet watched the DVD, and to promised him that I will buy the DVD the next day. Avoiding his odd bizarre approach, I said yes and log off with no intention to buy anything the next day for I will be hell busy cleaning the house.

And so, I was being a very good son, cleaning the house (while cursing my life), I washed the clothes, I ate, I drank, I napped. It was 7 p.m when my sisters and in-law wanted to pick something and asked me to watched Nathan in their room. While he’s playing alone with his board (which he made believed to be a fan), I explore their messy room and hoping that I would find the matrix movie I’ve been craving for the last few days. Then there it was, the ‘secret’ DVD, just laying there not yet to be opened, sealed. There’s no wonder how she got it in the first place, she has a pile of being-positive book under her dirty clothes. My curiosity level back then was over the top that I took it and opened the seal without asking permission (anyway they were out). Nathan was still playing, alone, so I went to my room next door to watched it.

It was brilliant!

As I watched the program, I don’t know why but I can’t stop smiling. I was maybe a bit overwhelming at first, but then as I thought about it, smiling is not going to harm me, why not?! I had the thought of that it was just made-believe, and that it was just so people feeling good about themselves. Well that’s the whole point isn’t it? Feel good about yourself, feeling grateful of what you have, always focusing on what you want and act on it! Sadness and misery comes all the time, don’t focus on that, focus on what you have and you feel good about. For me, ok I don’t have the perfect relationship, I don’t have a great career…

the truth is, it’s not ‘DON’T’, it’s just ‘NOT YET’!

Positively, I’m sure I will have all that in no time! Meanwhile, I’m just going to be grateful on what I do have, a great family, the good life, the good food I ate, good friends, great hair, cute looking ;-), talented, creative, etc. And now I don’t understand why I let someone-who-breaks-my-heart getting me all down the last few weeks when I have all the above that I dearly possessed all these times… it’s just stupid! Or as my friend would say… stupido idioto!

Lots of Love!
