The Way Things Are
The way things are stinks, but that’s the way they are for now. Accepting the way things are is resignation and fatalism, complaints and blaming everybody else.. But being present to the way things are is accepting the inevitable and looking for alternative ways to take advantage of the situation and enjoying it all. It means coming to terms with things around you. This attitude helps us distinguish our feelings and assumptions from facts. It frees me from the “should be’s” to face how things are. This approach redirects me from how wrong things are to positives that could come from it. (Aside: In the language the Bible I would say “all things work together for good to those who love God.”)
This approach also fres us from the calculating self and free from runaway imaginations to our central self and helps us break walls.
