Accept The Good


There are two ways out of a problem: Even though my two examples are related to love and relationships, I am percent positive that learning to accept things as they present themselves is a helpful tool in all aspects of life.

I fulfilled a purpose.

Radically Accept What Is Instead of Labeling it "Good" or "Bad"

When I had finished the dishes, I went out on the porch to talk with him a few minutes. It didn't take a long time to see that this old man had an oversized heart crowded into that tiny body.

It didn't take a long time to see that this old man had an oversized heart crowded into that tiny body. Audrey was ever afraid that Brian's trips to the slums where Jerry lived would end in disaster. You can also attempt to radically accept your feelings. When they die, they cannot be replaced this side of eternity.

He refused breakfast, but just before he left for his bus, haltingly, as if asking a great favour, he said, "Could I please come back and stay the next time I have a treatment? Your children made me feel at home. From him we learned what it was to accept the bad without complaint and the good with gratitude to God. Recently, I was visiting a friend, who showed me her flowers.
