Books and Literature and Love and DatingThe Secret
I just bought the book ‘The Secret’ two days ago, and have not even started to read it when I saw CC’s reference to it. And it’s so relevant to me these days — “the secret” to being in love. Read:
…stop thinking you don’t have love. stop focusing on what is lacking in your life. start by recognizing that there are so many people around us who love us and whom we can love back! family, friends, people we work with… then you become thankful sincerely of what you already have: this wonderful people around. Then start loving. It’s an action word. start focusing your energies on making people you love happy. spend time with them, make them laugh, make them feel appreciated. then extend to other people in dire need of loving: the poor, the elderly, the abandoned, the orphans and widows. just keep on loving and loving. this way, you stop focusing on what you don’t have and you start focusing on loving people around. you end up sending signals of love to the universe. and that is what the universe will give back to you. love, in all its forms, perhaps including romantic love.
Ang taray, I so love this idea! Go give it a try!
(Ayan ha, dear deep, dark and mysterious universe — makinig ka! I said love. Love, love, love. LOOOOVE!)

parang coelho ang flow ng thoughts nya. but have you read coelho’s zahir? you would have love that too. makakarelate ka rin.
COMMENT FROM MIGS: I’m a Coelho fan! And yes, I have “The Zahir” and have started reading the first few chapters. Thanks for the tip LordRommel!

Migs, I have seen the DVD version of “The Secret,” and I realized I have been living it all this time. Believe me, it works! That quote you made, about loving others so that love flows into your life–that’s exactly what I have been doing. And guess what? I have been rewarded by the universe with a love of my own, alleluia! I strongly encourage you to go read that book, and put its practical wisdom into practice.

di ko pa nababasa yung zahir ko hehehe. anyways it’s so inspiring to read that reference. I mean its so innocent explanation like a word of wisdom and its not only for gays but to all, to everyone. Hope every one will read this.

I have read this book, and it’s nowhere near Coehlo’s.
I find this book a bit too philosophical and ideal.
