Acceptance


I am choosing acceptance for today's project. I am going to accept where I am right now, right here today. It is so easy to be focused on where I would like to be and what I would like to accomplish. I like to remember that acceptance isn't about passivity. Accepting doesn't mean that I don't have dreams and goals that I am keeping on my radar screen and that I am working toward. Acceptance just means that I accept that in this whole panorama of my life, today is here. Not the past; not the future. For today, I accept where I am in this journey and will extend this thought to those I meet today or think about today.

  1. I am really glad I chose acceptance as my word and concept to focus on today since I ended up spending time at the DMV!I felt very calm and -- well -- accepting. I am four days into this daily blog and I have to say having something specific to think about is helpful. Kind of like a touchstone.
