“Acceptance is not
a state of mind you reach and say, “Whee! I’ve accepted myself and all my flaws, and life here on out will be grand.” It’s often a process of putting the memories and angst aside for a time and then sometimes being woken again to the pain, then repeating the process until you finally accept the situation and move on.”
