ACCEPTANCE

I accept myself completely.
I accept my strengths and my weaknesses,

my gifts and my shortcomings, my good points and my faults.

I accept myself completely as a human being.

I accept that I am here to learn and grow,

and I accept that I am learning and growing.

I accept the personality I've developed,

and I accept my power to heal and change.

I accept myself without condition or reservation.

I accept that the core of my being is goodness and that my essence is love,

and I accept that I sometimes forget that.
I accept myself completely,

and in this acceptance I find an ever-deepening inner strength.

From this place of strength,

I accept my life fully and I open to the lessons it offers me today.

I accept that within my mind are both fear and love,

and I accept my power to choose which I will experience as real.

I recognize that I experience only the results of my own choices.

I accept the times that I choose fear as part of my learning and healing process,

and I accept that I have the potential and power in any moment to choose love instead.
I accept mistakes as part of my growth,

so I am always willing to forgive myself and give myself another chance.

I accept that my life is the expression of my thought,

and I commit myself to aligning my thoughts more and more each day with the thought of love.

I accept that I am an expression of this love.
