Last night I had just got my seven year old daughter settled into her pink Hippo tent, which we had pitched on the living room floor. We had located it right next to our favorite rocker-recliner which I was, at that time, occupying. Since she was content, watching one of her favorite DVDs on her portable DVD player, I decided to use one of the video streaming services and watch a movie on my iPad. I started browsing the documentary category and quickly found myself drawn to “The Secret”.

I watched in amazement. And as I watched, I found myself making many connections to the paths that my life has taken and the events that have shaped it so far. I finished the show and went to bed thinking of all of the beautiful people and things that I have in my life.

I woke up today and began a new journey. I focused on seeing the good and beauty all around me, maintaining positive thoughts, and sending positive energy to everyone near me. I visualized the way I want many of the things in my life to be. It was a great day. Nothing major happened, but to be perfectly honest, I was “thinking” that nothing major would happen today, ha! The evening progressed to the point where my daughter and wife were asleep and I decided to research “The Secret” a bit more. I downloaded the daily teachings app onto my iPad, read the Day 1 entry, was tempted to sneek peek the Day 2, but resisted. Then I thought, “perhaps there is an ebook that I can buy”.

I found the book, installed it and began reading. I am at this moment on page 72. I had just read “you can purposefully use your feelings to transmit an even more powerful frequency by adding feeling to what you are wanting”. I stopped and started meditating on all of the beautiful things that I had seen today and I was feeling extremely uplifted, and then I began to hear singing in my daughters playroom. I was alone and it was a little unnerving, but it was also OK. I went to see and hear what it was and found that it was coming from a pile of my daughters dressed, half-dressed, and some, totally undressed Barbie-like dolls. This is what one of them was singing: “No matter how your heart is grieving – If you keep on believing – The dream that you wish will come true”.

I can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings.
