Acceptance

Should our lives be summed as the process and action of receiving

Life is full of surprises, and we all love surprises!

But the truth is we are often ambivalent about the fact. That said, we tend to focus and remember the extremes, sometimes forgetting the small moments along the way.

We love; the surprises we like that bring good fortune such as unexpected gifts, good weather, etc. But, on the other hand, we lament and hold onto the grief and sorrow of the ambushes that stop us in our tracks.

Because of this, we find ourselves trying to control people and situations, often categorising life experiences as good and evil, pleasant and awful.

Perhaps it would help if we looked at all experiences with an acceptance that it is what it is—a platform if we choose to evolve and become.

If we experience joy and happiness along the way, we should look upon the adventure as a blessing.

Everything we encounter is an opportunity for understanding who we are in that moment. So we might as well buckle up and accept the ride.
