I'm Disappointed in Her

The Work of Byron Katie - Podcast készítő Byron Katie

A man whose baby has died struggles with listening to his wife complain about work. His thoughts are "Her world view is rubbish," "She needs to not care about work," and "How can she think about work when our baby is dead?" At the core of his inquiry is the belief "She behaved in a way that made our baby Sophia's death more likely." MAN: She waited and waited and waited before having a child, and that made it more likely that the child would die. BK: "Her behavior made Sophia's death more likely"--can you absolutely know that that's true? MAN: No. BK: And how do you react when you believe that thought? MAN: I feel broken. Snapped. Blocked. Like I can't go on. BK: How do you treat her in that situation when you believe that thought? You're looking at her, but you're seeing the woman who killed your child. MAN: I'm not truthful with her. I'm pretending everything's okay. I'm screaming "no" inside, and "This is rubbish!" I feel aggressive and hopeless. BK: You believed she shouldn't wait so long to have a child. And she believed she needed to wait. She's just like you, and you're blaming her for being just like you. You're both guilty of believing your thoughts--that's all. If you prefer to suffer, go on believing your stressful thoughts. But if you'd rather be happy, question them. —Byron Katie Website: http://www.thework.com Webcasts: http://www.livewithbyronkatie.com Subscribe: http://www.youtube.com/theworkofbk Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theworkofbyronkatie Twitter: https://twitter.com/ByronKatie © 2016 Byron Katie International, Inc.
