📅 Thought for today:

‘I am a lover of what is, not because I’m a spiritual person, but because it hurts when I argue with reality.’

— Byron Katie

My final Byron Katie quote of the week (and my fourth, I hope you were counting).

We can either control things, influence things or accept things.

These are our options with events, and also with people, our thoughts, and our attitude.

There is a fourth option; we can worry, complain or get angry about things over which we have no control or influence.

That fourth option is the source of much anxiety, stress and depression.

Accepting this reality is far more beneficial to our mental health than most other “wellbeing” remedies.

It is what it is.
