Mind isn't as serious as my mind makes it out to be.

Eckhart Tolle
About This Quote

Sometimes, I do things that make me feel like my life has been seriously messed up. I do things that are wrong or harmful to other people, or that people say are wrong or harmful. I think about all the things that have happened to me. They make me very sad and angry, and they make me want to do bad things.

But sometimes, my mind is not as serious as my mind makes it out to be. My mind can be funny sometimes—I won’t even admit this in front of my friends—and it can be silly sometimes. And it will make mistakes from time to time.
