Loving What Is: Four Questions That Can Change Your Life, Byron Katie

are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present.

I don't have a religion. I believe in a God. I don't know what it looks like but it's MY god. My own interpretation of the supernatural.

In all of England, I do not believe that I could have fixed on a situation so completely removed from the stir of society. A perfect misanthropist's Heaven

I lingered round them, under that benign sky; watched the moths fluttering among the heath, and hare-bells; listened to the soft wing breathing through the grass; and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers, for the sleepers in that quiet earth.

This is certainly a beautiful country!  In all England, I do not believe that I could have fixed on a situation so completely removed from the stir of society. 

I am now quite content in my seeking pleasure in society be it country or town, a sensible man ought to find sufficient company in himself.

I wish I were out of doors! I wish I were a girl again, half savage and hardy, and free; and laughing at injuries, not maddening under them! Why am I so changed? why does my blood rush into a hell of tumult at a few words? I'm sure I should be myself were I once among the heather on those hills.

What are we to do, then? To make the best of what lies within our power, and deal with everything else as it comes. 'How does it come, then?' As God wills.

I know that I pray a lot, and I take time for myself.

I feel like it is important to make sure you are always praying, always talking to have clarity of mind and peace.

The more you pray, the less you'll panic. The more you worship, the less you worry. You'll feel more patient and less pressured.
