This idea came to me as a result of Chris Lambos' remark about a new high rise condo project in Nashville.  I didn't know they had high rise condo projects in Nashville; did you?

myrtle beach real estate: The Secret: - 12/15/07 04:04 PM
My sister practiced "The Secret" for almost two years.  She practiced it diligently, consistently, relentlessly.  She made her list, her "wish board", her "wish box".  She watched the movie weekly.  She listened to the CD daily.  Within that two years' span, she actually accomplished EVERYTHING on her list.  She completely transformed … (10 comments)
