ACCEPTANCE

Acceptance is the answer to all of my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some ‎person, place, thing, or situation – some fact of my life – unacceptable to me, and I find no serenity ‎until I accept that person, place, thing, or situation as being exactly the way it is supposed to be at this ‎moment. Nothing, absolutely nothing, happens in God's world by mistake. Until I could accept myself ‎as I am, I could not stay sane; unless I accept life completely on life's terms, I cannot be happy. I need ‎to concentrate no so much on what needs to be changed in the world as on what needs to be changed ‎in me and my attitudes. (AA pg 417)‎

A SHARED LIFE

When two people make a decision to share their lives together in good conscience and out of God-based love, no one has the right to interfere with that decision.Anyone who tries to interfere has a political and not a God based agenda 99.9% of the time. They destroy but do not edify, build up. After many years of trying to understand my personal sexual orientation, I came to accept myself as the person that God created. Nothing in God's world happens by mistake. The only label that fits me is: CHILD OF GOD MADE IN HIS IMAGE AND LIKENESS.
