The Secret Is Out

And the Secret is.....

Well, you're going to have to read it to find out.

And that's what I'm doing right now.  I'm now reading "The Secret" by Rhonda Byrne. 

Now, when I first heard about this book it was on Oprah.  And I was working at Barnes and Noble.  And the minute that Oprah declares she's reading any book it sells off the shelves like hot cakes. And then you get all of these people complaining about how the book should be available because Oprah talked about it even though that's what two hundred people said before you came in the store.  So, needless to say, I could really care less about "The Secret" or for Oprah at that time.  In fact I wished the book was still a secret. Haha, bad pun.

But now, I'm a little older and a little wiser.  And I don't work in a bookstore any more.  And now I'm able to let by gones be by gones and finally read about this secret that so many others, inspired by Oprah, have already figured out. 

I don't want to spoil it for you though.  I want you all to read it for yourselves if you truly want to delve into it.  But I will tell you this.  The Secret is revealed in the first chapter.  And it's not like "Think and Grow Rich" where they don't say exactly what the secret is, and that you have to figure it out.

But, if the whole point of the book has been revealed in the first chapter than why is there still 186 more pages to the book?

Well, I'll just have to take my own advice and read it to find out.
