Acceptance

​We all need acceptance
To be appreciated
Given respect
Live life as created
When things go awry
Not quite as planned
We find disappointment
Try blaming others for this hand
We were dealt by circumstances
Anger at unfairness
Loss of hope in our chances 
Fear of trying too hard
Disappointed in our weakness
Unforgiving of our failures
Always comparing ourselves to others
Not living up to our standards
Accept the situation
Embrace your human nature
Start from the beginning 
Change your point of view
Know you have some goodness
Know you have some strength
Dwell not in what you don’t have
Make the most of what you make
Create some love around you
Enjoy some common ground
Do things that give you meaning
Do things that make you whole
Find peace in the acceptance
You can take on any role
Don’t expect yourself to be perfect
You don’t have to be so unique
You are good enough just as you are now
Acknowledge your human mystique
Egos battle all around us
Fighting for the pie
Go beyond ego in order to see it
Find higher self when you try
Priorities can and do change
A fresher point of view
Making love and peace more important
Appreciation will be renewed
You don’t have to join the rat race
It doesn’t mean you will not strive
Your calling will propel you
Its something just to be alive
Not all days will be such good ones
It doesn’t make much sense
Accept the bad days equally
Still progressing now and hence
Notice all the emotions
Awareness of the thoughts
There is more that can define you
Grow from what you’re taught
Keep learning as you go
Open to what’s in store
Connect to source of meaning
Create from what you know
