On my previous post “The Secret” or Law of Attraction

I did mentioned that ” You are who you think you are and attracted to the people and thing you constantly think about it!”

There is this old story that I heard about Law of Attraction many many years ago, long before “The Law of Attraction” becoming a big SECRET! The story goes like this;

One hot summer evening, a grandfather and his grandson was sitting on the balcony of their house watching people going pass their house. Nothing exciting happened. The young boy was almost dosing off and a young man suddenly stood infront of them and asked,

“Hi, old man,” he was looking the grandfather.

“Yes, young man, how can I help you?” The grandfather asked.

“Can you tell me how is the people in this small town, are they friendly and kind, or hatred and fierce?” asked the young man.

The grandfather reply, “Young man, tell me, the people in the town from where you came from, how did they behave?”

“Oh, they are full of hatred and anger, snobbish and cynical.” The young man said.

“Then, the people in this town are the same.?” The old man said.

The young man show a sign of disappointment and told the old man that he would move on and find another town where people were friendly and kind.

After the young man left, the grandson looked at his grandfather puzzled.

The old man then slip back to his rocking chair and rest with half eyes closed. After a while, another young man appeared and asked;

“Excuse me sir, can you please tell me, the people in this town, are they friendly and helpful.”

The old man just asked back, “Tell me son, the people in the town where you came from, are they friendly and helpful? ”

“Oh yes definitely, people in my ton are all very helpful, joyful and kind!” said the second young man.

“Then the people in this town are the same.” said the old man.

“Thank You, I will make this town my second home and stay. Thank You.” Said the second young man.

After the second young man left, the grandson cannot keep his curiosity anymore and asked his grandfather, “Grand pa, why did you tell the two person two different kinds of people in our town.”

The grandfather just reply, “My son, did I told them different thing? No, I just tell them that we are the same from the people where they came from.”

“I did not understand?” Said the grandson.

“Simple,” said the grandfather “It is their thinking and feeling about other people that make the people he met friendly or fierce. He will focus and attract those kind of people that he hold in his mind, nothing more, nothing less.”

So what is the Thinking and Feeling that You hold in your mind?
