What is the best piece of advice that you've ever been given so i thought about that and it reminds me of a friend of mine Her name is byron katie She wrote this great book called loving. What is and piece of advice is when you argue with reality mccolm to hell while and i just i think about that all the time if i'm having a bad day so rather than fighted just try to be curious about it not furious.
