Thoughts

"Ultimately it was her father's words that gave her some relief. 'Mother had thoughts in her mind that hurt her,' he said, in that straight-forward way she loved. He never lied to her, never made her feel stupid or babyish. 'She put poison in herself by thinking. Remember this, dear one: Thoughts can be like a sickness. Wrong thoughts in the mind can be as hurtful to the body as bullets.'" ~ Stephanie Kallo, Broken for You, p. 52
