Acceptance for me
Acceptance for me is accepting responsibility to change myself and that I cannot change anyone else. This is a hard one to deal with when you really start to work at it, but I will perservere and try to embrace it each day. By doing so, it's funny, but you are really lifting a burden off your shoulders by admitting this but at the same time, adding another "burden" in it's place by knowing that it will be an ongoing process. I hope to find this less of a burden and more of a way of life, just like eating, sleeping, etc. It is necessary to stay "alive"! I thought the proverb below was appropriate.
Angels know your good bits and you bad bits, and they still love you.
