Good post Burninator. I used to believe along the lines of what the Secret is preaching. The ideas were pretty popular in the 60's but the school of hard knocks, made me grow up a little and realize that just because I'm positive doesn't mean that I'm going to be showered with blessings. I still believe that I've been given a lot of my better wishes but it's never worked for a poker hand or a horserace.
Instead of wishing for all these material things that we hope will give us contentment, though it is good to be healthy and wealthy, the wise man may cut to the chase and just ask for contentment.
