Sunday Dinner: Acceptance

~

“Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes.

Don’t resist them; that only creates sorrow.

Let reality be reality.

Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.”

.

“For after all, the best thing one can do when it is raining

is let it rain.”

“Let go of certainty. The opposite isn’t uncertainty.

It’s openness, curiosity and a willingness to

embrace paradox, rather than choose up sides.

The ultimate challenge is to accept ourselves

exactly as we are,

but never stop trying to learn and grow.”

.

My happiness grows

in direct proportion to my acceptance,

and in inverse proportion to my expectations.”
