Acceptance is not approval, consent, permission, authorization, sanction, concurrence, agreement, compliance, sympathy, endorsement, confirmation, support, ratification, assistance, advocating, backing, maintaining, furthering, promoting, aiding, abetting or even liking what is.
Acceptance is saying, “It is what it is, and what is, is what is.”
All Philosophers have understood this, that a rose is a rose is a rose. And even Popeye says: "I am what I am.” All have understood that this is the way to acceptance.
