On acceptance

This is something I heard yesterday at exactly the right time:

When I stopped living in the problem and began living in the answer, the problem went away…

And acceptance is the answer to all my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some person, place, thing, or situation–some fact of my life –unacceptable to me, and I can find no serenity until I accept that person, place, thing, or situation as being exactly the way it is supposed to be at this moment…Until I could accept my alcoholism, I could not stay sober; unless I accept life completely on life’s terms, I cannot be happy. I need to concentrate not so much on what needs to be changed in the world as on what needs to be changed in me and in my attitudes.

  1. I recite that paragraph every morning. Or, to be completely honest, most mornings.

  2. Here’s a website you may find useful. http://www.addicted.com is a site for friends, families, and those who suffer from various addictions.
