Acceptance is the magic that makes change possible. It is not forever, it is for the present moment
Melody BeattieLetting go means we stop trying to force outcomes and make people behave. It means we give up resistance to the way things are, for the moment. It means we stop trying to do the impossible-controlling that which we cannot-and instead, focus on what is possible-which usually means taking care of ourselves. And we do this in gentleness, kindness, and love, as much as possible.
Melody BeattieWe see and understand more about our behaviors. We come aware. And aware. And aware. . . Often, we feel uncertain about what to do with all this awareness.
Melody BeattieWe need to build downtime into our lives, so that we can have solitude without feeling overcome with guilt.
