In last night's class, someone asked a question, and I've been thinking about it ever since. The more I think about it, the more I'd love to hear answers from other folks. I'd love to hear your thoughts. 

We were talking about making changes within ourselves, from a place of acceptance rather than criticism. 

The question is this: How do you know when you've truly accepted something? What does that acceptance look like? Feel like? 

Please discuss in the comments!

I think there are some levels to acceptance. I may really accept a part of something. I accept that in this point in my life I can not bring a pet of my own into my life. The want and need is driving me to fix be things I must fix in order to be able to have that pet. A few of the things are out of my personal control and I struggle deeply with accepting that part of it. I also think you can accept things in a moment and then struggle with it again later or even partially accept something but be like one foot in the acceptance and one foot out of it. It is a complex feeling and it doesn’t fit in a box.

When it comes to acceptance I think knowing if you have accepted something varies. In some situation someone accepting something means no longer talking about it because it doesn't bother you anymore, but in other situations accepting something means being able to talk about it because it doesn't cause a lump in your throat when trying to discuss it. For me there is a situation I have accepted recently. When I graduate from college next spring I plan to move out of the state that I currently live in. My best friend moved across the country and is welcoming me with open arms to join her. I'd be stupid to pass it up. There are a few people in my life who are completely against it and don't want me to do it. At first it made me have many types of feelings and I felt like I needed to validate myself to them and convince them to be okay with it. I have came to the conclusion that there is nothing that I can do to change what they are thinking and feeling. All that I can do is continue to keep in touch with them once I leave. Their feelings could stem from something deeper than my deciding to move. Even though their opinion isn't what I want it to be, they are still validated in feeling the way that they are feeling.
