Life is simple. Everything happens for you, not to you. Everything happens at exactly the right moment, neither too soon nor too late. You don't have to like it... it's just easier if you do.

Byron Katie
Image
That's where the fear comes from-from your uninvestigated thoughts.
Byron Katie
Image
Gratitude is what we are without a story.
Byron Katie
Image
Mind changes, and as a result, the world changes. A clear mind heals everything that needs to be healed.
Byron Katie
Image
I love to not defend ever and to open my mind and take in what can always add to me, not take away from me.
Byron Katie
Image
Clarity moves much more efficiently than violence or stress.
Byron Katie
Image
Every (stressful thought) is a variation on a single theme: This shouldn't be happening. I shouldn't be having this experience. God is unjust. Life isn't fair.
Byron Katie
Image
Realizing that people should lie when they do makes me a little more open-minded, a little more tolerant, when my child or my partner lies.
