And so much of it!

Depression, pain, and fear are gifts that say, "Sweetheart, take a look at your thinking in this moment. You're living in a story that isn't true for you." Living a lie is always stressful.

It hurts to believe you're other than who you are, to live any story less than love.

Byron Katie

Hurt feelings or discomfort of any kind cannot be cause by another person. No one outside me can hurt me. That’s not a possibility. It’s only when I believe a stressful thought that I get hurt.

It’s within my power.

Byron Katie

That's how it works. If I hate someone, I'm mistaking them for me, and solutions remain hidden.
