As if the second you say it, everybody is supposed to imagine peace, serenity, spiritual maturity, maybe a linen outfit and a quietly superior tone of voice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is not what I mean. And it is definitely not what I feel. There is no acceptance for what was done to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let me say that cleanly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No acceptance. No approval. No surrender. No \u201cit made me who I am today\u201d nonsense wrapped in soft language and passed off as wisdom by people who have never had to live with the body memory of violation while the man responsible remains free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Absolutely not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I do not accept what he did. I do not accept the brutality of it. I do not accept the insult of what it changed. I do not accept the fact that this nightmare became part of my life at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That kind of acceptance does not exist in me. And I do not think that is a flaw. But I am learning a different kind. A much stranger kind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A path I did not ask for and apparently have to invent myself because life remains committed to making me build roads in places where there should have already been a bridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019m learning to accept reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not endorse it. Not bless it. Not make it prettier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just acknowledge what is true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This happened. It changed me. It hurt me. It still hurts me. He is still free. I am still disappointed. Still angry. Still more heartbroken by the not being seen, the not being heard, the not being held by justice the way I should have been than I know how to say elegantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All of that is true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And maybe acceptance, in the real sense, is just stopping the internal war against what is already true. Not because truth is fair. Because denying it does not save me. That feels like the path I\u2019m on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A new path to acceptance, apparently. One I am creating while walking it. Very inconvenient. Very me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because the version of acceptance I can live with is not passive. It\u2019s not beige. It does not ask me to become spiritually numb or emotionally polite in the face of what should still make me furious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It asks something else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It asks me to stop wasting what remains of my energy arguing with the fact that it happened and start deciding what kind of woman I am going to be inside the reality that remains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is different. That is not forgiveness. That is authorship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is saying I see the truth. I hate the truth. I refuse the lie. And I will still build something here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not because I\u2019m over it. Because I\u2019m alive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Roger, meanwhile, accepts everything. Sunlight. Snacks. Injustice. The concept of leaves. The sound of his own paws. My emotional complexity. The moral rightness of napping across the entire couch as if he personally pays rent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I admire his range. But I am not him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My acceptance is not simple. It has claws. It has tears in it. It has disbelief in it. It has an ongoing side eye toward anyone who tries to confuse \u201caccepting reality\u201d with \u201cmaking peace with evil.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some things remain unacceptable. And I think a soul should know the difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So maybe that\u2019s the path, then. Not toward forgiveness. Not toward some false softness that abandons the truth in order to become easier to explain. But toward a harder, more exact kind of acceptance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The kind that says this happened. I did not deserve it. It changed me. It will not own the rest of me. That feels true. And truth is enough for today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chaos in one hand. Grace in the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And me, apparently out here creating a whole new path to acceptance because the old ones were not working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1536\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wildpoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/ChatGPT-Image-Dec-7-2025-11_20_37-AM.png?resize=1024%2C1536&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-452\" style=\"width:39px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wildpoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/ChatGPT-Image-Dec-7-2025-11_20_37-AM.png?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wildpoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/ChatGPT-Image-Dec-7-2025-11_20_37-AM.png?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wildpoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/ChatGPT-Image-Dec-7-2025-11_20_37-AM.png?resize=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wildpoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/ChatGPT-Image-Dec-7-2025-11_20_37-AM.png?resize=768%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wildpoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/ChatGPT-Image-Dec-7-2025-11_20_37-AM.png?resize=8%2C12&amp;ssl=1 8w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Day 134 &#8211; I\u2019ve been thinking a lot about acceptance lately.
