We are all reluctant to accept situations or people who do not meet our expectations. We want everything to happen in the time and conditions we want. We poison each other with the “not accepted”, causing suffering with our resistance and blocking everything that must flow naturally in its path.
We must understand that accepting a situation as it appears is not to settle down, but to seek to understand that everything has its time and that everything is as it should be, if we act with all the possibilities for such a situation to arise in one way, and the same in another, it will not make sense not to accept it, because it will not change it, since we release all tension, resistance against your nature of the moment.
- To accept is to understand that there is.
- At a point that is not what is desired.
- That what is necessary will be done when possible.
- Without creating expectations but having patience in its natural manifestation.
Imagine, for example, a situation where we have been fired from our job, at a time when we feel safe there, we are funding a house, a car or something else, and certainly if we don’t find another placement afterwards. , we may have problems. Putting yourself in a veil of indignation and revolt, not accepting the situation, will not change it at all. First, we must accept that we are unemployed, second, we will do our best to change the situation by looking for new investments, savings and even renegotiation of accounts, thirdly, we expect the results to appear in time. Hitting your head against the wall with “I don’t accept,” which has to change “now,” will only make the situation more critical.
It is a mechanism that sabotages our tranquility and our conquest, we have to be focused on the goal, be focused, but without the anguish it must be, life itself struggles and nothing resists and happens in perfect harmony, all in its time. To accept is to give yourself up in a new moment, to understand that in life nothing is immutable, permanent. To resist this is to block the natural flow of things.
When you start acting a little, everything flows, and always for a better condition, it’s life that does its perfect part. When you don’t wonder, “Why is this happening to me?”Life.
Excerpt from the book? From Eckhart Tolle, I leave this section for reflection. “Life is now. There’s never been a time when your life wasn’t now, and there never will be. Whatever the content of the present moment, accept it as if you had chosen it. He always works with him, not against him. Make him your friend and ally, not your enemy. It will miraculously transform your whole life.
