Step 36! I am learning acceptance. Of myself and of others. There are some things about myself that I cannot change and I am learning to stop apologizing for being imperfect. I am also learning how to stop waiting for others to change for me. I can accept them for who they are. I might need to restructure a few relationships, but I will finally stop trying to change for others, and stop waiting on them to change for me. Acceptance of myself and others feels like emotional freedom. Thank you, 7 cups!

@GlenM I am learning about acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) as a way to help heal from past trauma.
