When you think a new thought, John, entertain a new dream, or mentally choose a new goal, your thoughts "leave" you and go out — in every direction — to the farthest corners of the planet. They carry a life force all their own, like ripples created when a pebble is tossed into a pond.
You can't change this, John, but you can totally use the heck out of it.
Think good thoughts,
The Universe
