What an absurd amount of energy I have been wasting all my life trying to find out how things 'really are', when all the time they weren't.

When I have listened to my mistakes, I have grown.

A whole mind cannot create chaos. A conflicted mind can create nothing else.

I am responsible for what I see. I can elect to change all thoughts that hurt. I could see peace instead of THIS. The past is over it can touch me not. This instant is the only time there is. Today I will judge nothing that occurs. I am not the victim of the world I see. I can escape from the world I see by giving up attack thoughts. I am determined to see things differently. I am never upset for the reason I think. Forgiveness is the key to happiness. All that I give I give to myself.

You're wrong means that I don't understand you, I'm not seeing what you're seeing- and I'm not seeing all of you there is to see. But there is nothing wrong with you. You are what you need to be, doing what you need to be doing, and although I may take steps to protect myself of others, I do not know all and therefore am literally inadequate to judge.

If a man takes off his sunglasses I can hear him better.

Some people will like me and some won't. So I might as well be myself, and then at least I'll know that the people who like me, like me.
