"You are in charge of your thoughts", they say
I don't seem to get it,
Is it possible not to be in control of your thoughts?
What if a particular thought lingers,
Despite all efforts to discard it?
Does that make your thought out of control?
What does this even mean?

Positive thinking will put your thoughts in check,
I heard.
But are the thoughts drawn from the present or future?
What if high hopes leads to depression?
What happens when every efforts proves abortive?
What if reality keeps checking in?
How then do I...
