The Secret, the book/movie that was featured on Oprah 2 times, its flying off shelves, although i havent bought it, i just think it sounds so ridiculous... O WOW people just NOTICED that POSITIVE THINKING is the way to GO! and WOW! People just realized that the LAW OF ATTRACTION is powerful , and WOW Vegetables are WAY MORE NUTRIOUS then Mc DONALDS..(sarcasm there) , i JUST found out about veggies being so healthy now!WOW

GOSH! WHY ARE SOOOO MANY PEOPLE CRAZY ABOUT THIS?
REALLY!? WHAt IS SO "SECRET" ABOUT THE SECRET!? "THE LAW OF ATTRACTION" and "positive thinking" is NOTHING NEW AND FOUND! yet people who are ''into'' this SECRET thing, seem to act like "WOW, i've never heard of that method b4"...............
I DONT GET IT, i think the "secret" about The Secret is a BIG marketing ploy ....
tell me your opinions, and if u own the book/dvd...

In the bible Solomon was given a wish from God, who said Solomon could wish for anything. Solomon chose wisdom.

Apparently he needed it because he didn't wish for original sin to have never happened. But seriously, why didn't he wish for that?

Please don't say, "Because the bible is a pack of lies for a pack of dogs." That kind of thing gets very old.

PlEAse READ!!! My family thinks I'm mentally ill. How can I prove them wrong?

I'm 19, a young lady. I think that this may be a break true. It's been months I've been a little out of it. Many things don't interest me like they use to and the past gets to me. Stress causes me to become very emotionally sensitive at times. Low confidence, bored, lack of energy. In my point of view my cousin gave up in life because of certain events that happened in his life, not because he has a mental illness like anxiety. People create anxiety when they label things and thing negatively. My dad hasn't worked in years. He feels helpless and that life is not in his control. Society didn't give him a chance and so did himself. These people are pessimistic. I'm optimistic. That's how I see it. They gave up and allowed others to label them. They were defined by society and not themselves. Life isn't easy and they didn't have people around to guide them. I get depressed, angry, cold and distant because people have hurt me in the past.

Now I can not move on thinking that my family thinks that there is something wrong with me. Many of them are blind to see that I am just a human being that has not let go of the past. People have the will to change. I CHOSE to be bitter and angry, I could chose to be happy and interpret things positively.

In a world like this, peer pressure, it's easy to think that there is something wrong with you. People are ready to sell medication or do surgical procedures all for MONEY!! That mentally ill talk is BS. Many experienced psychologists know it.

I have a fear to move on because of the past. I can not do this overnight! I have to talk about it as much as I can.

"I wish my weed was emo so it would cut itself"

I don't do drugs and I don't think its cool do them. I also feel bad for people who cut themselves, and am not making fun of anyone, emo or not. I just heard this quote and it made me laugh. What do you think?

did learning and dtermining whether there existed an objective reality that existed independently from your self play a big role in philosophy? or was stuff like external world skepticism and solipsism just hypothetical philosophies that realy didnt play a significant role in anything.what are your opinions on those 2 subjects? arent they pretty much disregarded as false and farfetched subjects?

its called "walk away"

I don't want to hear it,
so just stop!
Close your mouth,
and just walk away,
even if it's just for the day,
at least I'll have some serenity,
without having to be pestered by you.
Can't you see,
I don't sympathize,
the words that come out of your mouth,
they seems like gibberish.
Trying to comprehend what you enunciate,
feels like,
I'm trying to understand bird talk.
I've tried so hard,
to understand you,
but it's just not functioning.
Maybe some other day,
I'll finally get you,
but for now,
please just let it be,
and walk away.

CAN U RATE IT FROM 1 to 10... THANKS!
