Art of Acceptance


A man who took great pride in his lawn found himself with a large crop of dandelions. He tried every method he knew to get rid of them. Still they plagued him.

Finally he wrote to the Department of Agriculture. He enumerated all the things he had tried and closed his letter with the question: "What shall I do now?"

In due course, the reply came: "We suggest you learn to love them."

From time to time in our life unwanted event, issue and person will crop up, instead of wasting energy and resources to get rid of them, we can learn to love and accept them.

Accept the things to which fate binds you, and love the people with whom fate brings you together, but do so with all your heart.” ~  Marcus Aurelius
