Name ONE thing you accept in life?
I'll start:

I accept reality. (if that's too wishy-washy, I'll say something else...)

5. That life is a struggle
and there are not necessarily any rewards for good behavior. IOW, life isn't fair.

6. That my father died before I knew him.
Edited on Mon Jan-15-07 04:50 PM by mainegreen
That only took about 25 years or so to come to terms with.

:(

But I'm a dad now, so I finally get to experience that father-son dynamic. Totally excited for that.

(edited to add That to the subject)

8. That some people are really good at selling a line of shit
to their own detriment, in fact, although they're hindered from seeing it by their own success.

9. Addicts quit when they want to.
And that includes nicotine junkies. There is nothing I can do to help them "change."

11. I accept that at 41, my dream of an NBA career probably isnt happening
Of course, being 5'9" and slow probably contributed some to that.

16. That life is what you make it.
:) My husband needs to learn that too instead of wallowing in self-pity.

18. Everyone dies. It's a good thing to realize actually. It gets you moving
in some good directions. Making a will, planning and going on those trips you never took, spending more time with the grandkids.

All good stuff. So I'm really happy that happened!

21. Humans are not as significant as we think we are.
We are just specks floating in the cosmos, arriving late to a six-billion-year-old blue planet, and we won't be here forever. We are not the center and ultimate realization of some Sky God's creation.
