In my life, there has come a time when I have learned to accept things for what they are. It can be difficult especially when there are feelings of wanting to do quite the opposite or not believing that things should be a certain way because your brain has been led to believe that it should be the opposite. However, things happen because they are working for all and not just what you want them to be, and you have to learn to live with them because it is the way that it is, and it is best to learn that it is the way that it is.

Change has never been easy for me to accept, especially when I find comfort in knowing that things are the way that I have been used to. But sometimes we have to be open to allowing things to be a part of our lives because there can be more of a benefit than what has been or could be happening and be more destructive than what has been or could be happening.

It can be easy to figuratively point out the flaws behind the change or what you have to do because my emotions can be heightened and there is the fear of doing what I need to do because there are perceived fears about doing things that something bad is going to happen. With some of the changes that have happened over the past few years, I have seen that there are not only more benefits but also less of an opportunity to be susceptible to reacting negatively or having a meltdown to things that were previously more challenging for not only me but also others .

For some things there was perceptions or beliefs that things wouldn’t be the way that they were because of what happened in the past and not being receptive to things change and giving the way that things are now actually happening along with providing more opportunities for me than what has been allowed to happen in the past. Seeing that things while beneficial for not only others and being part of change can also be beneficial for me too and bring a better demeanor.

There is also knowing that believing that something is perceived to be because of one person or thing rather than seeing the whole picture behind the change or action by allowing myself to see that things are actually better by accepting things for what they are while starting to let go of what was perceived because what I have been long believing is flawed or untrue because it was what was then and not seeing things for the whole picture.

Granted, there are challenges when it comes to things being what they are, but I am learning to live with them and not against them. It is seeing that life is more beneficial with the changes that are in place and giving them time for the kinks to work themselves out while being patient and giving myself grace with the perceived garbage that is being led to be in my headspace with understanding that those things are not true, and things are better now. It is the way that it is, and I am starting to accept them for what they are.
