What if “they” believe every word I say?

By Lynne Cory

What if the Universe believes every word I say and gives me what I speak about? What if I am always saying I’m sorry (which means pitiful in the dictionary) and I become very sorry? What if I am thinking or saying I could never do that and so I cannot? What if I speak of illness as if it was mine (my bad cold or my asthma) and so it remains with me? What if I become more careful with my speaking and thinking and life improves?
