G'day! 
We are responsible for our choices in life.  Most of us accept that as true, and enjoy the responsibility.  How deep does that responsibility go?  Does that responsibility make us more powerful or less powerful in our own lives? 

"Your life is what your thoughts make it." - Marcus Aurelius   

So, we are responsible for the management of our thoughts too?  Selective thinking?  Does thinking rule life?  Or does life rule your thinking?  I believe:  thinking rules life.  What do you think?
