We went to a New Age Church on Sunday with the intention to watch the movie: The Secret.

But the equipment wouldn't cooperate.

So our friend and minister gave us the DVD to take home and view.

I couldn't ignore what I felt as I watched the movie. It focused on principles I am sure you're all familiar with.

As am I: Principles such as the importance of gratitude and forgiveness, and bringing the wisdom of the spiritual masters into our every day lives, in order to experience All We Are Meant To Be.

These principles emphasize the power of the subconscious mind through auto-suggestion to bring about everything we really, really want in this life time. But because of limiting beliefs, we may feel as if we don't deserve to have these things.

The movie emphasized principles such as strength, enlightenment, joy, prosperity and love to neutralize the negatives such as shame, guilt, resentment and fear.

The Secret demonstrated that in order to heal others, we must first love and heal ourselves.

Yes, we've heard about these things a million times.

But we may still be stuck in ruts and grooves where we have long failed to feel the absolute Joy of Living moment by moment.

And that is what we must do: throw off all these limitations--because there are no boundaries to what is possible to achieve.

The narrators brought up example after example of drawing millions and millions of dollars into their lives by the simple act of changing their minds about money. Most of the narrators had been very poor and in some cases, homeless at some point in their lives.

Forinstance: instead of looking at some wealthy person and secretly thinking, "That person is rich because she screwed people."

or, "Money is the root of all evil."

or, "Money creates greed."

You get the picture.

Instead of having so much anger regarding money, the idea is to say: "I am the master--money is my servant. I am the creator of my life, in concert with the creative divine Intelligence of the Universe."

"I am The Conduit for Love, Prosperity, Joy, Abundance and Money." And it's important to FEEL the freedom, and FEEL the depth of your positive emotions.

The Movie went on to define all areas of life where we are potentially blocked: relationships, health, and all examples of negative attitudes.
