ACCEPTANCE:

~

So much of our anguish is created when we are in resistance. So
much relief, release, and change are possible when we accept,
simply accept.

We waste our time, expend our energy, and make things harder by
resisting, repressing, and denying. Repressing our thoughts will not
make them disappear. Think it. Let it come into reality. Then
release it. A thought is not forever. If we don't like it, we can think
another one or change it. But to do that, we must accept and release
the first thought.

We make life harder by resisting and repressing our feelings. No
matter how dark, how "inappropriate" we might deem our feelings,
resisting and repressing will not free us from them. They will swirl
inside us, torment us, make us sick, compel us to do compulsive
things, keep us awake, or put us to sleep.

In the final analysis, all that we're really called on to do is accept our
feeling.

Acceptance turns us into the person we are and want to be.
Acceptance empowers the events and circumstances to turn around
for the better.

What do we do if we're in resistance, in a tug-of-war with some
reality in our life? Accepting our resistance can help us get through
that too.

Acceptance does not mean we're giving our approval. It does not
mean surrendering to the will and plans of another. It does not
mean commitment. It is not forever. Acceptance does not mean we
accept abuse or mistreatment; it does not mean we forego ourselves,
our boundaries, hopes, dreams, desires, or wants. It means we
accept what is, so we know what to do to take care of ourselves and
what boundaries we need to set.

Acceptance and surrender – two concepts that hurt the most before
we do them.
