Acceptance is a difficult issue for many people because it is about tolerating or making peace with something in our lives that we don't like or that causes us pain.  But the key to less suffering and possibly finding a solution is to stop holding on to the way things were before our problem occurred or to stop holding on to the thought that things should have worked out differently.  Resisting the flow of life will only makes us stressed and unhappy.  It takes courage to accept life the way it is, but it is the beginning to finding peace and MAYBE even making our situation better.
