The latest trend (as evidenced by the popularity of books like The Secret)is to focus a lot on how we make things happen, we draw certain kinds of energy to us... I realize that this is meant to be a helpful message that encourages us to be positive and proactive, but I think if we explained everything that simply, we might end up beating ourselves up about all the bad things that come our way. My friend's husband died of lung cancer without ever having smoked. Was he supposed to have drawn that to himself through some personal lacking or issue?
