In the past I have resisted unwelcome situations and unwanted outcomes. Over time, I have learned that my resistance did little more than leave me agitated and unhappy.
I have learned to trade resistance for acceptance. Accepting situations as they are does not necessarily mean I like what is happening, but it does mean I am willing to be present to it without resistance or struggle. From that place, I am better able to work toward creating better conditions for myself and others.
When I practice acceptance, I inspire and comfort myself by leaning into my innate DIVINITY. I shift my attention from what might feel wrong to that which is always right: the absolute, unchanging PRINCIPLES and LAWS that make up my DIVINITY.
