What I'm about to share with you is a perfect example of the Law of Attraction in the most beautiful way. And, when there is complete faith, with the purist intentions, you can make anything happen for yourself!
If you don't already know, Oprah had some of the people from The Secret movie on her show yesterday. A dear friend of mine forwarded an email to me from her girlfriend knowing I would absolutely love the story and how things unfolded.
Her girlfriend watched The Secret and loved it so much that she decided to send the DVD to Oprah with a passionate letter about the film.
She received a phone call from Oprah's Executive Producer who had just seen the movie the night before she received the package and loved it. She also explained that because of the amount of mail Oprah receives she never calls people who mails anything to Oprah but made an exception in this case. The producer was going to have Oprah watch it since she hadn't seen it yet.
When my friend's girlfriend learned that Oprah was doing a show with some of the people in the movie she called the Executive Producer several times asking to come see the show. There was no return phone call.
On a whim, she decided to book a flight to Chicago to see the show even though she didn't have a ticket for the show. (Oprah gets 6,000 requests a day for audience tickets!)
She ended up getting in to see the show sitting in the 2nd row, center and had dinner with the panel who was in The Secret and on the show! She met with Oprah after the show and shared her story.
Oh yes, one last thing. A while back, she put together a picture of herself standing next to Oprah as part of her Law of Attraction exercise and sure enough, before she left to come home, she had a photo taken with Oprah after the show was over!
So take this story to heart and know that this woman is no different than you. When you take action with anything that you are inspired to act upon and follow through with unwavering faith miracles do happen!
On the heals of The Secret’s financial success have come more blatherings, and repetitive rehashings of old ideas, badly presented and argued. One re-printed concoction which gave root to The Secret is The Science of Success by Wallace D. Wattles.
Without delving into the endless incomprehensibly egocentric and materialistic pronouncements, one peculiar statement exemplifies the kind of insight provided by such books. The author claims “To fully live in soul, man must have love, and love is denied expression by poverty.” There aren’t very many interpretations possible for such denigration of humanity. Given that the vast majority of the world’s population is considered poor, this statement tells billions not to expect to either be capable of love, nor should they be able to be loved. Your not being rich means you’re out of luck on love and endless other potentialities.
So here’s a suggestion: At the diametrically opposite end of the spectrum in the exploration of life, the ego, and the soul, is a book that presents a powerful counter-balance to narcissistic salvation of soul and body presented by The Secret and The Science of Success. That book is My Self, My Soul by J. deBar. Even the tone to a difficult subject are refreshing.
“My Self, My Soul” refrains from sermonizing, unlike some how-to-make-a-fast-buck “answers to life” books permeated with not so subtle cult creation methods. It was welcome antidote to too many readings that just don’t digest well.
