Right. That's what people misunderstand. It's not giving up. Acceptance means that it's raining, and you don't spend all day wishing it weren't raining. Instead, you get your umbrella. Fighting against what is - refusing to just accept the reality of the situation - causes frustration, unhappiness, despair. Accept what is, what reality is in front of you, and then change it if you want it to be different. That's all. It's not capitulation; it's just saying "oh - it's cold. I'll get a jacket." You nailed it and expressed it much more clearly than I would have. Don't worry about things you cannot control is another part of that process. Look for the choices that are available instead. or something like that.

Perhaps. In my experience, acceptance can greatly contribute to serenity. ð

You get in more trouble for trying to kill someone and failing than you do for actually killing them. The penalties are usually harsher for those that failed than those that succeeded.

All that crap Matt Gaetz had done to his face sure was important enough to him. Can't fix his forehead or pedophile ways, though.
Oh but maybe you'd like to talk about substantive policy issues that Trump is proposing. Like outlawing all abortions, getting rid of no-fault divorces, raising taxes for the poor while giving more money to the rich. Or maybe his desire to turn federal govt employees into his flunkeys.
Or we could talk about Trump's felony conviction, being judged a rapist by two different juries, Trump's name all over Jeffery Epstein's flight and call logs (Epstein had 17 different phone numbers to reach Trump or his employees), the allegation that he knowingly raped and assaulted underage girls, the $500+ million he owes in civil judgments or the ongoing criminal cases against him.
Finally, we could discuss increasing dementia and separation from reality. As well as his constant lying.
But you're upset that I was mean to Matt Gaetz. That's what important to you.
Nah. You mistake me. Thanks for explaining the Boris Karloff part though.
