Acceptance

There comes a time to accept what is ours.  Accept our faults and our strengths.  Accept our parents. Accept that they were imperfect humans doing the best they could with what they had.  Accept that we don't have to live the same life they did, accept that we do not have to make their mistakes, accept that we have the freedom to live our own life.

Accept that our partner is meant to be a compliment.  Accept that they are not there to sustain us.  Accept that we are connected beings and can generate amazing power through the love we have for each other, but the only thing that binds us is that love. Accept that co-dependency is not the goal.  

Accept true and unconditional love.  Accept it from anyone around us willing to give it to us but turn inward, rather than outward, when we wish we had more.  Accept responsibility.
