I walked by a coworker’s desk at work today. She had a book on her desk called “The Secret Daily Teachings.” I said, “Do you know what the secret is?” She said, “Yes.” I said, “What is it?” She said, “Gratitude.” I, believing I had some level of intelligence said, “It’s actually the Law of Attraction.” That led to a friendly debate I was never going to win.
