acceptance

I have found that acceptance is CRUCIAL to survival in this world
Although they are all different types of "acceptance" they all flow together.

You must accept the situations you find yourself in. Not to say that you can't change those situations but realize that the situation before you IS reality and nothing can change it for the present time. Your movement through time can only change the course. Take the things you are dealt and make them work.

You must accept who you are at your most basic, bare and inner levels. Do not fight to change because you are being told to. Balance who you are against the morals and beliefs that you find true and then change to match those. Inward change without true belief or understanding is a futile and treacherous journey for the soul.

Accept when things have passed. There are beginnings and endings all around us. You must be able to understand when they show themselves to you. Do what you can, but denial is only going to force you into a pit.

Accept those around you for what they are. Everyone has something to bring to the table of your life...have a spoon full and appreciate them for it.

Accept the choices that you make in life. Those choices and decisions may not always be the best and you can always learn from them, but none the less they are yours. Apologize for them when you see fit and fix the messes you make, but remember you made them for a reason.

accept the truth and nothing else.
