About This Quote

Acceptance of what is. That is the shortest path to peace with yourself. This quote by Eckhart Tolle, a spiritual teacher, sums up everything that makes it possible to see your life for what it really is. It’s hard to accept that there are things in your life that you can’t change.

But, when you accept them, they lose their power over you. That’s when you can start finding peace with yourself again.
