Words are often ways of invoking pictures and feelings in our minds and bodies

For example, as a child I was taught to visualize what I wanted from God as a child of God. If God is your parent then all of you are sort of potentially like Jesus or could be. Therefore, training children to visualize what they want as children while believing they are children of God might be useful in training them to create what they want sort of like architects or Builders of their lives on into the future. 

Where I actually ran into trouble with this type of thinking was that "Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans".

Life is NOT orderly in any way and if you cannot adapt to the disorderliness of life then you might not be alive or sane very long.

I come from a long line (since the 1720s) of American Pioneers who survived everything you can imagine that happened here in the U.S. since then. So, adaptability is very strong indeed in my genetics.

So, I had to learn that even though I could visualize what I wanted in life and sometimes this even worked that also all sorts of other people are visualizing something completely different which might be fatal to almost anyone.

So, learning how to protect yourself while visualizing what you want is really important in long term survival here on earth.

By God's Grace
