You are the SECRET

"The Secret" was a media phenomena, which I enjoyed...yet I think there was an integral part missing...this speaks to it. You can here this poem recited and watch some exciting graphics at the link below.

Tst Tst..where is the secret I want to know
If you come over here I’ve got much to show
It’s not what you think or you’re led to believe
I share this with you so that you’re not deceived
Now, there are good things that come to us all
There are good things to which you musn’t fall
Be not dejected nor be ye confused
And do not misquote me that it’s all a ruse

Let me be clear right here from the start
I enjoyed all the hooplah and believe it has heart,
But heart has it’s place and the place is a fraction
Of what you truly must know about the law of attraction.

There is ONLY ONE law that will help you succeed and
It’s only the law that you find on your knees,
On your toilet, your terrace your bed or your bath
There is ONLY ONE thing that you truly must have.

Now I will catch flack from my brethren in kind
Who may say, “You’re just jealous, you must be out your mind”
They might say” Tell us why you just won’t go on your way”
My response is “because I’ve got something to say”

I really liked the message of power
It’s just what we need right at this hour
Yet, when we speak with such veracity
About such things as infinite capacity
We must be sure that when we project
We suggest the options which really effect
Our world as a whole for our situation is dire
Life is so much more than external desire


The law of attraction and all that you need
Is to know who you are then for sure you’ll succeed
To know who you are you must go deep inside
You mustn’t abandon the process and hide…
When you see that you aren’t the true person you thought..
That is…the secret. you should have sought.

You seek visibility not something that’s hidden
For when you seek something that hasn’t been given
You fall for disguise and things that aren’t true
The secret is VISABLE and the secret is YOU.

Now why haven’t you found the things you dearly hold fast?
I’ll tell you why…cuz you’ve never let go of the past.
The past is your future, you’ve heard that before…
Now what you must do is throw that out the door.
Your past means you nothing for you can create,
But because of distractions….too much on your plate
From childhood to grownup you do all you do
For the people around you and never know you.

Now come along with me and feel what I SAY..
I’m not angry or stubborn, or hateful or gray…
A media sensation is not what I seek
I seek true co creators that bolster the weak
That needn’t find secrets when all they must do
Is to show you that all that you need is in you…
The law of attraction that you need to find is the one that will
Show you it’s all in your mind…

Heed not to philosophies, there is only self
Go deep inside your soul, put the REST on the shelf.
If someone has to tell you how to be you
When they are not there, then what will you do.

In your mind you will find the true things that you seek and will
Not need a new car or a streak of some
Mystical fanciful life you’ve been shown
You were born with ALL needs those you already own.

When Our minds are whole, the only law we need to possess
Is the one that releases us from ALL this matrix mess.

The vision board usually holds things you want just for show, a new house a new boat
A new love a new…whoa….
If your board doesn’t show how to love planet earth, please tell me what any of those
Material things are worth.



They said it was buried…well that isn’t true
The only things buried is the “knowledge of You”
They said it was hidden, I can’t fall for that line
To hide is to take, and my soul…that is mine

What you must FIRST attract is that space in the mind
Where once deep inside you know what you’ll find
That the trappings you think will make you feel free
Is the ONE thing that veils you from being able to see.

You can have all you want without buying a book or listening to me
To have all you want you Must First Be free of the thoughts that you have
To have something other than you
to be quite successful and not to be blue.

I did like the message that “you have the power”
I’m not trying to share with you grapes that are sour
My purpose in truth is to be sure you succeed and know that within you is all that you need
Not for gain and for pleasure although that is good, what I urge you to do is do as you should.

I’m not judging but how many of you have on your board, peace to all of earths residents and not things that you hoard.

How many have pasted the question of what is the work
that we do for our planet to give it rebirth.
Do you see where I’m going, I’m sure that you do…it’s not stuff to attract, it is knowledge of you, and once that knowledge of you comes alive in your heart then I’m sure that each of us truly will be doing our part.


Personally, I enjoyed the media sensation the secret….yet, I realize it was all about if you do this then you will get this…..what I am attempting to say..if you know yourself, most often you won’t find the need to have those things, for it is most often those things that keep us distracted from knowing who we are.
