Accept the Things We Cannot Change

Our lives can open up to much more freedom if we can allow ourselves to accept the things we can’t change.  Traffic on the way to work, spilling coffee down our shirts or even the outcome of the super bowl… it’s out of our control so why give it second of anxiety?  We can try to allow ourselves to release the need to manipulate the things around us and instead embrace things exactly as they are.  It may even free up a moment to stop and smell the roses.  It doesn’t sound profound or even that far fetched but the simple shift in thinking can lighten the load on our shoulders.
