"You hold in your hands a great secret".
Yes - I am definitely talking about 'The secret' by Rhonda Byrne. Yesterday one of my friends had got it to work...I just managed to read through 3-4 pages..by the time I was out of office, I knew I had to go to a book store. :-) Bought it. Not that it has a secret that I don't know of. Any secret that would help me feel good and happy is already known to me. Surprises are always welcome, though. I have already known the beauty of gratitude and the power of visualizing things that you want to make happen and the way Universe conspires to give you what you throw out to it...all old concepts..yet so very refreshing to read through and sort out your grey matter.
A thought that I read yesterday in this book was 'why do we always long for things that we don't have' than 'feeling happy about the things that we already have'. How many of us and how many times have we felt gratitude for the things that God has given us...including these eyes that we see from, the mind we think from, the mouth we talk from. Many don't even have these. I loved it. I want to be happy and grateful about all the things that I have - and my count begins today.
Find time, even for 5 minutes, to go back in times and think of all the things that you have and be thankful.
Sharing a secret - my first gratitude to YOU ALL - I am glad I have you all with me, in my life, sharing beautiful moments together!

I was just hoping and waiting for you to get this book.......Thank God you got it girl..............I am a chain in the bigger circle of life.
When you are done reading this, get Now by Eckhart Tolle. Another good read. And then keep using it, again and again till the point you are in sync with ...........
One of my closest companion, guide, philosopher, guru, friend in need, confidante..........whatever name you want to call it by, told me once..........
If your life is a half glass full, great.......Go ahead and fill someone else's half glass...and lo and behold you will have a FULL glass....brimming with love, life, peace and calm.
Riju (Correct me if this is someone else - i have a strong hunch it is you riju...) - why were you waiting for me to get this book? Why din't you just tell me to go and buy it? I hate you for this. I will read the other. You always make me feel so good with your wonderful thoughts..you are a great human being. Thanks for being there.
havnt heard abt it.. will give it a try.. thnx for the word...
yes its me "Riju", but you can call me by any name.thats immaterial, what is more important is that one actually comes to a realization that we are the valuable dot / chain which is a connection, and not the whole circle itself.............so why feel desolate and alone.........and also why feel vain and pompous either.
"A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose" by Eckhart Tolle.............the book is available both in paperback and in audio form. This is the latest book (I am still reading this one, so cant say much, but so far given my circumstances and understanding, I am totally immersed and in awe)
i loved this book Mon..they have made it a movie as well. i have the dvd but havent seen it yet.
the best thing about the book is it tells you how to look at the positives of life than keep checking on negatives.
How to look forward for things..and atleast by the time i read the book for few days there was so much positive vibes around me and i love it..did a whole lot of good to me
Sharanya...exactly..which is the movie...would want to see it.
the movie is called The Secret Mon..a documentary
