Acceptance

quotes on acceptance

Acceptance is an important ingredient in the recipe of SURRENDER. To ACCEPT what is, what has been, what could be. To accept one’s tears and one’s cross. To accept one’s joys without the guilt of feeling that one does not deserve the treasure she has found.

Much of our suffering comes from non-acceptance. Much of our energy is wasted resisting what already is.

Acceptance however, does not mean accepting evil, of not giving a fight to do what’s right. But it means fighting in another way, a fight that does not focus on resisting evil, but that which focuses on surrendering to attain what is good.

Through acceptance, we defeat our denials. We accept the darkness for what it really is. But we remain unafraid, ,knowing that darkness cannot prevail over the light. When we are of the light, no darkness can defeat us – ever!

Are you searching for hope? Download the e-book today - "Where Hope Can Be Found". The thing about hope is that it’s a positive force that shines the most when it’s dark. When everything’s going well, we hardly notice it’s there. But when things go against us, when our dreams fade and when we see no immediate reprieve from our troubles, that’s when hope does its best work for us.

Hi Jocelyn,

“Much of our suffering comes from non-acceptance. Much of our energy is wasted resisting what already is.”

Excellent point you make here! Acceptance is imperiative to living a life of Happiness. Dwelling on something is surely wasted time and energy. We must accept, let go and then attracting all the good things.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Many Blessings….
