Fw:Quado's Garden: Accept Yourself

[Guest guest]

This is from a friend...love it! Let me know if this is inappropriate on this list...I like the quote on weight gain!Begin forwarded message: http://www.quado.com/quados-garden/050930.htmAccept Yourself Today, accept and love every part of yourself, even those parts of yourself that you most wish to see change. That which you resist is held into constant being through your resistance. That which you love and accept has a pathway to transform through love. If you had a friend who gained weight, would you turn from her? Would you tell her that she looked terrible, criticize her for allowing herself to get that way? No, of course not. You would love her, no matter how she looked. You would make sure she felt safe and accepted, no matter what she had done or what had happened to her. Treat yourself like this, like a dearly loved friend. Accept yourself, approve of yourself, completely, exactly as you are. Embrace every part of yourself as a part of yourself. Give yourself love, unconditional love, and absolute and complete approval. Just as you are. Exactly like this. You are exactly as you should be in this moment. End the resistance. End the struggle. Accept yourself. Love yourself. And through this unconditional acceptance and love, that which does not belong with you will have an opportunity to slip peacefully away.
