Stress is caused by being ‘here’ but wanting to be ‘there.’ -Eckhart Tolle

I don't want it to end, and so, as every therapist knows, the ego does not want an end to its “problems” because they are part of its identity. If no one will listen to my sad story, I can tell it to myself in my head, over and over, and feel sorry for myself, and so have an identity as someone who is being treated unfairly by life or other people, fate or God. It gives definition to my self-image, makes me into someone, and that is all that matters to the ego.

Wherever you are, be totally there. -Eckhart Tolle From the Motivation app: https://motivation.app
