“ I need to cry and vent but I just put this wall up. Acting like everything is all good, but in reality i’m looking for something. “ - J. Cole Acceptance usually isn’t a bad thing. When we mention the word acceptance, very rarely do we think of it in a negative manor. Looking for acceptance however can lead us into some of our biggest downfalls and disappointments as humans. When we are looking for others to solidify us we take away from our own genuine actions and instead our demeanor leans toward actions that will make you more noticeable or the pleasure of feeling wanted in this world. Doesn’t sound bad right? Well, it can be unhealthy.
A lot of time this happens subconsciously and our intuition doesn’t notice that we are doing this for acceptance but needless to say that we must ground ourselves to notice our ways and be more mindful of what makes YOU, YOU. Getting beside yourself for someone else’s co-sign or for the pleasure of feeling needed is toxic. You can only seek acceptance from yourself. Trying to find through others will only lead you to confliction, resentment, and disappointment. Thank you for reading! As always, give feedback and recommendations.
