Quote by Kathleen Norris

Life is easier to take than you think; all that is necessary is to accept the impossible, do without the indispensable and bear the intolerable.

Life is easier to take than you think; all that is necessary

Summary

This quote suggests that life becomes easier if we are willing to change our perspective and approach certain situations. By accepting that some things may seem impossible but are actually achievable, we open ourselves up to new possibilities. It also teaches us to adapt and do without things we consider indispensable, reminding us that certain comforts or dependencies are not always necessary for our well-being. Lastly, it encourages us to develop resilience and endure the hardships that life brings, recognizing that we have the strength to bear the unbearable.
