Treatments and cures and other unknowns

How many times have I imagined some horrible disease is rearing its ugly head in my body?

More than I can even remember!

So it would seem likely that when I do it again, I am once more on that imaginary path to unnecessary suffering and anguish . . .

But . . . what if this time it is real?

That is always the curse of those with big imaginations.

The next thing that worries me is the fear that imagining something can bring it, or something worse, into being.  I know for sure that stress is bad for me and I have seen people supposedly cured by what can be no more than the power of positive suggestion, or great belief.  I do believe we have the ability to heal ourselves of some things, but the belief has to be real.

Any kind of doubt denies the full power of whatever it is to work.

Belief, fear and doubt -- more powerful than some of our most popular treatments.
