I'm not AGAINST The Secret, but I am FOR world views that are universal, and are compassionate and INTELLIGENT and not hedonistic and materialistic and so f***king STUPID for simple minded folk who think happiness is only about being famous and rich and owning a planet killing Ferrari and 6000 square foot house! oops, I blew it... c'est la vie.Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06424592942558764840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4291649238761960949.post-10230658101258359122008-10-21T15:13:00.000-07:002008-10-21T15:13:00.000-07:00Caroline: Glad it arrived safely, thanks for letti...Caroline: Glad it arrived safely, thanks for letting me know<BR/><BR/>Mel: I would so like to LOOK like a Stepford wife, at least like Nicole Kidman in the remake, of course that would require lots of lipo, collagen and botox...maybe not...<BR/><BR/>Paula: yeah, I'm not a big subscriber to the whole self-help phenomena, because I've seen it become a real crutch for a lot of people, but I agree to a point that you are what you think and retraining your brain to switch focus can really help. I agree, fear and worry can really be debilitating.Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06424592942558764840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4291649238761960949.post-4036061531045279122008-10-21T10:54:00.000-07:002008-10-21T10:54:00.000-07:00Hmmm -- isn't the 2008 equivalent to Pollyannaism ...Hmmm -- isn't the 2008 equivalent to Pollyannaism The Secret? :)<BR/><BR/>Great video clip!
