on cherishing as accepting as cherishing … (09/10/10)

“It’s huge to finally embrace the life you never planned on.” ~ Noah Baumbach

Acceptance is not a “ho-hum, I guess this is all there is so I might as well accept it” mentality.  The Acceptance that will allow you to transcend ego and enter the realm of True Self is not only accepting that things are as they are, but simultaneously being grateful for the privilege to consciously do something with that reality to make it more harmonious for others.   This is what is means to truly cherish your existence … This is what it means to live as a Human Being.
