Acceptance is the Path

Acceptance is the path to peace.
What does this really mean as I go through my life of plans? As my plans shift as they have over the past month and circumstances out of my control have turned my life upside down, I have a choice. I can choose resistance to what is and experience misery. Or I may choose acceptance, that all is in Divine Order and experience peace.

As a sailor for many years, I learn how to adjust my sails when the winds shifted. If I resisted the wind, I ended up in the water. This is a great analogy for life, when the wind shifts, adjust and move ahead. It may take us a bit longer to reach our goal, but the addition to the journey adds to the spice in life.
