Acceptance Is The Key....
Permalink  
 


And acceptance is the answer to all my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some person, place, thing or situation -- some fact of my life -- unacceptable to me, and I can find no serenity until I accept that person, place, thing or situation as being exactly the way it is supposed to be at this moment.


God grant me the serenity...To accept the things I cannot change...The courage to change the things I can...And the wisdom to know the difference..

Ahhhyup! People, places, things, et al. They are what they are, will be what they chose to be. It's either acceptance or struggle. Accepting, and surrendering to the idea that our HP has a definate plan in mind for all these things, and stuggling against them is struggling against a purpose we know nothing about. So we try to allow the journey for others/things to continue without pushing us off our own path too far. Lv u, Wren

So true.  So logical.  So simple.  So damn hard some days.  So easy on others.


Hoping everyone is well tonight.

Hi Phil,

Thanks for that. I needed that this morning. I need a lot more acceptance in my life right now. Thanks for reminding me.

Take care,

Carol
