Life's Rejections and Your Acceptance

                                                 Life's Rejections and Your Acceptance

Accepting your life - all its good and bad experiences - is a way to learn great lessons to grow and to make other people and yourself truly happy. If you have a pessimist view, you will surely have a frustrating and miserable existence. Why? The reason is that you constantly search for things you do not have day and night. It does not mean to dream - to improve oneself -  is bad, but without realism is not.This craving disrupts you to face your tasks (responsibilities and duties) and to enjoy wonderful things, events, and people. You become absent in this world because you are in a prison of desires that give you discomfort, discontentment, and unhappiness. You will fail to touch the lives of many and to love those who love you. You live for yourself only. You become selfish, cruel, and worst evil to attain material things  you wish for yourself. You become a different character. You are not a real actor. You are full of pretense. Get rid of that ugly mask. Embrace your life. Live!

You must value whatever you have and whoever you are. Appreciate those simple things that matter most. The enumeration of those starts from the food you eat to an old man along the street who smiles at you. Please think of your family too ( It even includes those you have no blood relation, but they do care and love you). Always believe that there is Something or Someone higher than us, who showers these blessings. It is just faith. Be thankful of your life.

If life brings you to a place you like or do not like, or it puts you on a situation you dream or abhor, just deal with it. Use it as a learning opportunity. Face the fact that pains can be part of living. You can be a victim or a victor. It depends on how you see these happenings surrounding your life. It takes a strong personality and an intelligent mind to embrace losses. But have the confidence that you will rise from these falls. You will succeed. One day you will celebrate. And when there is a chance, be proud and happy of your accomplishments.

In every successful story, share it with your family, relatives, friends, and others. Help those who are in need. You may give a piece of bread to a beggar, clothes to a naked child, shelter to an old woman, education to a poor girl or boy, yourself to the unloved. You do not only breathe for yourself. You live for many. You can be a light to every dark corner, and every person that you make to smile or laugh will be your candle to guide, to inspire, and to enlighten you. Just imagine if you touch thousands or millions of people! It will be a bright and beautiful world for them and for you. Your world becomes not your competitor nor your enemy but a friend whom you think and feel who will never abandon you.

Meanwhile, your negative thoughts fade away, and they are changed by positive ones. You do not look at challenges as life's rejections, but your acceptance of all events of your life provide you with different lens. What you discover is not misery but mystery - that makes you deeply think of the meaning and significance of all your experiences. Once you break the cell with courage, bravery, self-esteem, and strength, the unfolding of their purpose will take place. You will be the best person you can be. At the end, you proudly say to yourself, "I must accept my life, and grow! I can be happy! I am happy!"
