Sometimes I say something like, "she should calm down or she's going to have a stroke". Or, "maybe he crashed on the way there".
People act shocked and say, "don't say that, that's terrible". What's the big deal, it's not like saying something is gonna' make it happen.

it is called TACT. and people are being polite by ACTING shocked at you and giving you a warning...but in reality they are sizing you up as tactless and unclassy.

You'll have to decide this for yourself. The Navajos believe that bad thoughts can travel far and hurt people. I believe there is energy in the universe, positive or negative. The more positive energy I add to the world, the more comes back to me. I feel better when I wish for positive things for people rather than negative.

Some people believe what you think and say, sometimes has the power to make it happen. I would hate to think I said something negative and it happened. Better to think positive.

Words like thoughts are real . They are made up of energy , energy , positive or negative will change things or even make things happen if they are strong enough .

This phenomenon is called Pyschomatic episodes. When you start believing something will happen, your mind makes the body to cause it to happen.

There are basically four levels of corporeal reality which are agreed upon by the scientific community; the super macro, the macro, the micro and the quantum. Events that occur on any of these levels can affect the other levels. You basically view your existence on the macro level. Thought processes occur on the quantum level. Thoughts affect the macro level.
Catholics do penance for thoughts as well as actions because "the thought is as the deed".

I firmly believe that life and death are in the power of the tongue. You can either speak life and blessings, or curses and torment.
