Accept, NOT Expect...

Today I Will Remember: "Accept, not expect." Do you have expectations for certain people or things in your life and find yourself disappointed or hurt when they don't meet those expectations? I used to be one of those people. I forgot that people have their own problems, their own lives, and their own way of dealing with things. I had to remind myself that the world doesn't revolve around me and people don't cater to my every desire just because I want them to.I choose to accept people as they are now, and although I have expectations, I won't allow feelings to be affected when they don't meet them. I will simply accept that is how they choose to deal with that particular situation and do my best to move on from it.#Day5 #TeamSobriety #thestruggleisreal
