Dear Amy:

This is the promising energy, strength I was referring to: aiming at reaching for the skies, as you put it. Even your stubbornness in I wont Accept this Reality! comes from this strength I am talking about. And I am not writing this so to make you feel better, so to strengthen you, not at all. I am sincerely, authentically feeling your strength and pointing to you what I feel, what I see in you.

I am with you, I fully understand that your life circumstances are not okay with you and I understand very much how intensely, how passionately you want to change these circumstances, take off the chain around your ankle and fly. This is a strong passion and i believe if there was a mountain in front of you and you knew that if you climbed it, your life circumstances would change, that you would do it, no matter how tall the mountain is, no matter the obstacles. If you saw the way, you would take it on!

My suggestion of Emotional Acceptance of your circumstances is a step on that figurative mountain. It … looks like if you accept your circumstances, you lose, but this is not true. For the purpose of changing your circumstances it is necessary (not an option) that you accept these circumstances for now (stress on: for now).

To get on that figurative mountain, to change your circumstances, to be who you want to be (which you are already inside” it is the part in you right now that wants to free itself and fly!) you can’t do it from the resisting, rebelling state of mind that you are now. Think about it: all these years that you did not accept, emotionally, your circumstances, how has it worked for you? Did it work? I don’t think it worked, so why keep doing that?

When you emotionally accept your circumstances, all your circumstances, every single one, past and present, then you will be in a different state of mind, calm, relaxed, understanding, mature. From there you can fix a good spot to fly from, so to speak.

What says you?
