[QUOTE="savior no more, post: 696216, member: 19838"] What I mean by this is that this is the space of deep pain which can be transcended into acceptance. The way I see it is that the illusion of happily every after with most of our Difficult Child's may not ever exist. But what does and is real are the times of love shared. Those are just ever bit as real as the moments of anger or sheer terror. The words we write to each other here on this board are the reality of what is occurring. Acceptance for me comes when I just state the facts without any judgement attached and with the knowledge that my acceptance truly doesn't alter life's happenings. What acceptance does for me is to release the hold it has on my thoughts and feelings. I can do this for the most part but when I can't and I get in pain and fear, then I can at least acknowledge it here and then by sheer tiredness be "gut wrenched" into acceptance. This probably is a bunch of esoteric musings, but sometimes I have to do this to get out of the emotions. This can also be a bad thing for me as I can deny my feelings easily. [/QUOTE]
