ACCEPTANCE

It was an impulsive reaction when I woke up at 2:45 a.m. just because of a dream that I usually see. But this time it was something different as I could feel a chilling night and lonely house. It was neither suspense nor horror, its all about acceptance. When lots of things are going in a persons mind; even at the subconscious level, mind does not stop thinking. Even a pleasant sunrise does not give a feeling of a fresh start, if the mind is unstable.

We have different priorities in life. Acceptance is not about compromising or struggling, it is all about satisfaction. Whenever we come across situations, when we are forced to change our priorities - we are exhausted. We think of all happy and sad times, but finally conclude with the best solution that comes to our mind. But do we really accept all that life gives us? If we feel happy - its more than mere acceptance. If we are sad - we compromise. But what if we are not ready to accept life as it approaches us? This is what we call struggle. When we opt for living by our own choice, we believe that we are writing our own destiny. Sometimes we believe that even if we can not change our destiny, at least we have the courage to fight for our happiness. 

Is satisfaction everyone's cup of tea? If yes, then acceptance should be a reliable asset. If no, then it should be a precious jewel to be preserved. Acceptance has different faces pertaining to different situations in life, it is our decision how we take it.
