I was watching Oprah one day and she had the author of The Secret on, plus a panel of other guests. I was curious about the book, so I went out and bought it. While reading The Secret, I had a “light bulb” moment and was inspired to start blogging. A few months prior to that, I didn’t even know what a blog was.

I’m not quite sure where this journey will take me, but I do agree with some of the information that’s written in The Secret. It does say that when a idea comes, to follow it; so that is what I am doing.

I have since gotten the DVD, The Secret (Extended Edition), and have watched that too.

My biggest concern was how The Secret related to what is written in the Bible, so I have been comparing it to one of the books I ready daily, Daily Readings from Your Best Life Now: 90 Devotions for Living at Your Full Potential, by Joel Osteen. I find it rather ironic, as there is a real parallel between the two books.

My observation of this is that I have been on the right path. It pays to stay optimistic, even when things aren’t going the way I had hoped, because something better is just around the corner.
