Our world is created by our thoughts. On the logical, left brain side, every invention was first a thought in someone's brain. They then set to work to make that thought (or dream) a reality. But, on the more metaphysical side, I think we also control our individual world by our thoughts. Lincoln said "People are about as happy as they decide to be." If you think happy thoughts, you are generally a happy person. If you think negative thoughts you are generally an unhappy person. I've had some pretty interesting experiences in my life where I would think of something I really wanted to happen (spent considerable time thinking about it as a matter of fact). Then I would let it go and not think about it for a time. Lo and behold it would happen. Kind of scarey in a way . . . to think about how much power we really have to make things happen.
