When I learn to accept life on life’s terms I become more peaceful, more content with my life.

Regardless of what’s happening or whether I like it or not, by accepting circumstances as they are and not as I’d like them to be, I remain sane!

Nothing’s permanent, everything changes; nowhere is this more obvious than in nature. As the tree moves through the different seasons, the changes are reflected without.  One moment you’re enjoying colourful Autumn leaves, and the next, they’re falling, heralding the beginning of winter.

Similarly, many things will alter who you are throughout your life. That’s why we need to develop the ability to truly accept whatever comes to us in the present, understanding that it will benefit us in the future.
