The True Power of Acceptance

Acceptance is not about throwing our arms up in frustration and surrendering to Life’s hard moments. Empowered acceptance is the art of viewing the events of your life not as obstacles to getting what it is you want, but rather as the stepping stones that bring you ever closer.

In truth, each stone presents you with the blessing of revealing the very lesson or remembrance required to heal what it is that you perceive as the obstacle- not an obstacle to success (whatever that is) but rather an obstacle to knowing the presence of Love as the Source and ground of your Being.

Pause at the next stone laid before you. Choose to examine it more closely, for as you gaze upon it long enough with genuine curiosity and an open heart, it may just reveal exactly what it is that you will most deeply benefit from seeing.
