No-one can disappoint you, only your thoughts about them can

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.

If someone says, "Katie, you are out of order," over something I've said, or, "Katie, you are wrong," if I defend myself or justify myself, then I have just started the war.

My life is a contribution.

The mind usually says, “I know, I know, I know.” But the “don’t-know mind” is where wisdom lives.

In my experience, we don't make thoughts appear, they just appear. One day, I noticed that their appearance just wasn't personal. Noticing that really makes it simpler to inquire.

If you're yelling within you that they shouldn't yell at you, that is where the pain begins, not with their yelling at you.
