The Secret

My final blog post will be about the most influential book I have ever read. The name of this book is The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. For anybody who has never heard of it, the book talks about the power of the law of attraction. The basic idea behind the law of attraction is three simple words: thoughts become things. By using the law of attraction, one can reach goals and achieve things that never seemed possible before. The book (later turned into a movie) is full of success stories and exercises in order to master the law of attraction. When I heard about it for the first time, I was extremely skeptical. I decided to give it a try, and I noticed immediate effects. This book is great for anybody who is in a dark corner of their life or even for anybody who is extremely ambitious and has set high goals for themselves in life. If i could recommend one book for the rest of the world to read, The Secret would be it.

This blog most is much different than any other post I have had. This is not about education or rhetoric, but rather life and how much mine has changed in the past 36 hours. Around 8:30 PM on Monday night, I received the phone call everybody is terrified of. I was informed that one of my good friends of 14 years had committed suicide. I want to take this opportunity to tell everybody that if you are in a dark alley of life or if you ever consider hurting yourself, PLEASE go find medical help. By ending your own life, the only thing you are doing is multiplying your pain and distributing it to all those who love you. I ask you to pray for the family of Logan Spears and most of all, please do not let a cry for help go unnoticed. Suicide is the most preventable form of death.

God Bless
