The shoe is on the hand it fits, there's really nothing much to it
Whistle through your teeth and spit 'cause it's alright
Oh well, a touch of grey kinda suits you anyway
And that was all I had to say and it's alright

I will get by
I will survive

What is Radical Acceptance?

Radical means all the way, complete and total.
It is accepting in your mind, your heart, and your body.
It’s when you stop fighting reality, stop throwing tantrums because reality is not the way you want it, and let go of bitterness.

What has to be Accepted?

Reality is as it is (the facts about the past and the present are the facts, even if you don’t like them).
There are limitations on the future for everyone (but only realistic limitations need to be accepted).
Everything has a cause (including events and situations that cause you pain and suffering).
Life can be worth living even with painful events in it.

Why Accept Reality?

Rejecting reality does not change reality.
Changing reality requires first accepting reality.
Pain can’t be avoided; it is nature’s way of signaling that something is wrong.
Rejecting reality turns pain into suffering.
Refusing to accept reality can keep you stuck in unhappiness, bitterness, anger, sadness, shame, or other painful emotions.
Acceptance may lead to sadness, but deep calmness usually follows.
The path out of hell is through misery. By refusing to accept the misery that is part of climbing out of hell, you fall back into hell.

Cool



I once read a novel where the protagonist's mother attends the concert where this was recorded and basically has an out-of-body experience when Paul Desmond's horn starts up on this song. I have not had the same result but I have enjoyed it very much.

The jazz weather may have passed for now but this was still quite lovely. I was aware jazz went to college but I didn't know it was a transfer student. Thanks for sharing. This reminds me that I need to listen to his album of Disney songs

Question

If it doesn't make you wiser
Doesn't make you stronger
Doesn't make you live a little bit
What are you doing?

I can stop lying
I can stop punching my own face
I can stop stealing money
I can stop hating my own heart

I can do it
Because of you

I can stop scratching up my cheeks
I can stop drinking so much
I can stop wanting to kill myself
I can stop wanting your perfect heart

I can do it
Because of you

I can start listening
I can say hi
I can feel something good
