Love and acceptance...from the book "Staying in Love."

Love and acceptance

Love and acceptance are fundamental to all good relationships.
When we love someone, especially in an unconditional way, it feeds the partnership and gives support through all kinds of trouble. Love is the key. It opens us up to being connected to one another in an amazing way.

Without love and acceptance, few relationships remain healthy and last for long. We are by nature flawed individuals all learning our own lessons and making messes along the way. The life we have can bring with it many pressures and problems to work through. Subsequently, just like our life is continually changing, so are we.   

Love is the one emotion that can heal the outcome. Whenever you have to deal with a hard part of the partnership strive to come from place of love, not anger or blame. Of course, it is natural to want to vent and blame. Nevertheless, it will spoil all good relationships in the end. The anger and blame may be valid; however, when we base our solution on those emotions, it will turn out poorly. 

Coming from a place of love will guide us through the storms and bring us to a better, happier outcome.

Acceptance is also paramount. Acceptance is not saying everything is totally okay. Acceptance is a form of love. It is letting go of all the past and moving ahead. Tolerance is similar to acceptance because we find a way to be okay with the decision or situation.


To have been given a loving relationship is a gift. Keep in mind that not everyone is so fortunate. Therefore, try to focus on your love and use it to guide and heal you. Life is short and tricky but with love around, we can surmount even the most difficult problems if we wish to stay together. It simply takes time and effort.
