The Secret

The Secret

No longer do I say I am broke, sick or old
As the universe will grant my wish I am told

It was Henry Ford who said of our internal fight     
“Whether you think you can or can’t, either way you are right”

Understanding “The Secret,” gave me the keys
To living a life full of inner peace 

Knowing how the power of my thoughts create things
And wanting those things to make my heart sing

I chose to listen to what I feel, think and say
To manifest a positive outcome to each day

How strong and passionate our transmission
Determines how big will be our next life lesson

The universe doesn’t hear what you like or what you do not
Only that your mind is powerfully focused on that thought

Rather than engage in conversations that lower my self worth
I show appreciation and experience the magic on this earth

The laws of attraction say when I am aware, caring and giving
Transmitted back to me will be a feeling of faith in living

If your energy is on fear of rejection and pain throughout the day
Life will give you experiences to continue to feel that way

The power in us allows us to change our life from bad to good 
By not focusing on what has happened but what could

Do not allow doubt or limitation to enter your mind
And an abundance of love, health and wealth you will find

Choose to ignore all negative feelings and they will fall away
And what will remain will bring only light your way

Allow yourself to feel a deep faith in your own abilities
And your life will be guided by infinite possibilities

Expect suffering, loss, pain, unhappiness and stress
And life will give you exactly as you request

Expect life to give you money, love, health and glory
And you will become the star of your own story

The documentary "The Secret" made me change my way of thinking, too. Sometimes when I wish for something with all of my heart, it really comes true. I honestly believe it works. Anyway, laws of attraction or not, we should all be more optimistic. Good topic and great writing! Kisses, Emily

Lori, welcome back. Glad to see you writing again. Nice poem. Nice message. I was told as a young boy, that when I find myself in tough times to play them out as if I am an actor in a script written the way I want things to turn out. Gave me the confidence and strength to make things turn out the way I wanted. It actually worked a time or two. Joe
