Accepting What Is

Acceptance-Quotes-111

This period of my recovery is about acceptance as I have been aware for some time of my life circumstances and situations.  My ego wanted certain outcomes, had expectations, and wanted to control everyone and everything to ensure these outcomes.

Acceptance of what is can be difficult when ego is still in control.  Letting go means accepting what is in our lives.  Certain things are in our highest and are best for us, other things are not, and we must surrender our wishes, desires, and control of situations or outcomes with others.

When we refuse to surrender our wishes, desires, and control, we will continue to suffer and struggle in our lives.  As it is said, “let go or be dragged through life.”  As I accept what is in my life more and more, I am feeling joy, bliss, and pure happiness in the moment.  Gone are the tears, suffering, and struggles of my past.

I have waited for this moment for many lifetimes to feel pure joy and happiness in the moments of my life regardless of what others do to me, say against me, and when others try to affect me.  It no longer matters and simply has no effect on the peace that is within me.  Find this acceptance and you shall find peace and genuine happiness in your life.  (Copyright 2015 Awakening Journey with All Rights Reserved)
