The Secret of Life

I know that this post has been much anticipated by many of you, and so I finally bring to you The Secret of Life.  What is the secret of life?  Well, there are two important parts to the real secret:

  1. Never tell anyone everything you know.

Okay, well that’s part of the secret.  The other part can be found in a book aptly entitled The Secret.  So what are you doing still on my blog?  Go read the book.

WAIT!  I’M KIDDING!  STAY HERE.  Actually, don’t ever leave this website.  No, wait, I take that back.  You are allowed to leave this website (after finishing this post and all others you haven’t read) only if you come back and only if it is to go tell other people about this blog.  I mean, everyone needs to know the Secret of Life, right?

Alright, alright, I know you’re waiting anxiously to find out what the secret is.  Well, what if I don’t know the secret?  What if I’m just fooling you and continuing to type whatever comes to my mind in order to keep you here at the Much to Say about Nothing blog? 

Why would you think something like that?  You’re wrong!  I really do know the Secret of Life.  But before I tell you what it is, you must promise me a couple of things:

  1. You must continue reading this blog for as long as you live.
  2. You must tell everyone you know about this blog.
  3. You must comment more often.

So, do we have an agreement?  I’m trusting you on this…

Now, the moment you’ve been waiting for… The Secret of Life… is that… there is no secret.  Again, I’m kidding.  In all seriousness, there appears to be some sort of force out there in the vastness of the universe that gives us what we want.

What?  That’s crazy, right?  Wrong!  Some people call it God.  Some people call it The Secret.  Some call it luck.  But whatever it is, it’s out there and it gives me a good parking spot everywhere I go.  No joke.  Mother can attest to this phenomenon because it happens to her too.  So what is it?  Is God on our side?  Or do we just simply understand how to employ the universe to work specifically for us?

I don’t know the answer to those questions.  All I know is that if I think that I want something, and keep telling myself that I actually have, somehow I get it.  Sometimes it comes in the form of a really good parking spot, and sometimes it comes in the form of Good Looking.  But it usually comes to me, whatever it is.

Now, I know you’re thinking this is crazy and can’t possibly be real or possible.  I assure you, it is.  And I advise you to start asking “the universe” for things that you want.  It may not happen immediately — it took me a while to start getting those parking spaces — but if you figure out how to make it happen for yourself, you’ll find that little things suddenly start going your way.  Divine intervention?  Luck?  The Secret?  Who knows…
