Seriously, for your target audience (for whom I have also written, under a pen name, and yes, they eat up the barfiest stuff, like dogs), I’d go with “Thoughts to hold.” I think staying away from gerunds and participles is good, and it’s just the right amount of touchy-feely, plus it reifies “thought.” ---

The second one didn’t do anything for me and the third one sounds too much like the English poet William Wordsworth…which I don’t think you are trying to intentionally make that connection. ---

I kind of hate the first two. I dislike the third the least. - They Said it Better - I Heard Somewhere - Carpe Quotem - WordSmiles (i hate that, too. but target audience) ---

No snark here. I’m not your target audience, but I think the first one is the best of the three. ---
