It's for each of us to look at what we really do believe - what our belief system really consists of.
Byron Katie
Image
Any stressful thought that you have about the planet, for example, shows you where you are stuck, where your energy is being exhausted in not fully meeting life as it is, without conditions.
Byron Katie
Image
Even breathing is a contribution.
Byron Katie
