An Unconditional Yes

Why is accepting reality so hard? Why is having an unconditional yes to the world so very difficult?

When I remind myself that it is my struggle against what is that causes suffering, I feel a sense of release. An allowing that lets down the resistance of opposition. But all too often, I don't see the resistance until the suffering is in full effect. My unconditional yes comes slow and late, if at all.

Deep down, I know that I control very little and that taking an attitude of acceptance will save me hours upon hours of strife. Yet, my ego so desperately wants to manipulate and oppose things.

I wonder if making a conscious effort to meet the day with an unconditional yes will improve my ability to accept what is. It's seems that it would. It might even become habit to accept things quietly and without a trantrum and hissyfit from my ego and mind.

I unconditionally accept what it. I say yes to life and all that it brings. Letting down the resistance and allowing life to flow as it naturally will.
