Acceptance, Again

When the universe, gives you a message multiple times, listen.  I heard the message of acceptance some time ago, and received the same message today.  During yoga same message, this time I accepting the meaning.  This time the spotlight was focused on the ego and it's desire to be right about everything and everybody.  Acceptance allows us to let go the need to control everyone and everything they do.  

I had a discussion with my mother this week and I thought I knew the right approach, my mother disagreed.  My challenge is to accept her decision because she has that right, and I have peace.  Peace of mind is a great place to be, resting in the fact that all will be well. All will be well, even without my control, so I accept what is.

Acceptance also helps us focus on accepting ourselves and all the good and bad that we embody.  At the end of the day, our choice is to free ourselves of the negative chatter, the judgements, and relax into acceptance.
