Thoughts just come and go, we don't have to let them rule us or give them energy if they are not worthy thoughts. But I do believe that when we give them energy they can become our reality, in that we attract that energy to us - healthy or unhealthy.
So it makes sense to keep our thoughts and feelings healthy, wholesome and good things will manifest. If we let them slide into darkness then things become awkward, difficult, we feel uncomfortable.

I believe your small story here, in your comment is wise and true.
How it fits into your bigger story, is something I look forward to hearing.

Thoughts do indeed come and go, and I agree that we can give our thoughts the energy to rule us by focusing on them....or not. What we focus on expands...and that indeed may become our reality. Some folks apparently do not want to control, direct and guide their own thoughts, and that is always a choice each of us has in any given moment.
I also agree with you Kate...."some very wise words on this thread and some....."! It really feels like some folks like to make this question SO complicated, when, in my perception, it is very simple. It has been proven that we can control, direct and guide our thoughts, so I don't understand the debate about that.
