Acceptance Is Not Resignation

Acceptance of one's life has nothing to do with resignation;
it does not mean running away from the struggle.
On the contrary, it means accepting it as it comes,
with all the handicaps of heredity, of suffering,
of psychological complexes and injustices.
- Paul Tournier

Fill your heart with the creative power
to accept the past,
decorate the present
and transform the future.
- Osho

You have to accept whatever comes
and the only important thing is that you meet it with courage
and with the best that you have to give.
- Eleanor Roosevelt

You don't have the power to make life "fair,"
but you do have the power to make life joyful.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
