The unwelcome fact we so earnestly resist is that our need is to surrender...our want is no, never. Our egoic mind knows to surrender is to lose. To lose is unacceptable.
We are at the precipice of the rocky cliffs of choice. We can analyze this further, continue to seek reason through analysis...or we can surrender, trust our raised consciousness within, hold our nose and take a leap of faith. Accept in a word.
Interestingly, and according to me, acceptance is a pretty word for surrender. Ego openly resists the very word "surrender"...until reasoning mind opens a tish and renames it "acceptance."
The hardest part about acceptance is...acceptance. We must give up the egoic idea that we can make an end-round around that which we are resisting, call it acceptance and have spiritual growth. No. But that is how surrender earns its wings...crash and burn births spiritual growth, and we resist no more.
The sacred art of acceptance: Welcome it, pray thank you, hug it and kiss it and let it go...with love and laughter.
Thank you.
