i do admit that not accepting the reality of our situation and trying to fight over our situation can make us feel uncontented. so i am trying to learn to accept the things that i don't have although it does not mean i am giving up on making plans and doing things to have them in the future. but for now i just try to accept that i don't have those things that i am longing for, that i still need to work harder in life. but i don't need to feel bad for now but just try to motivate myself more that i can get them one day.

I guess that's the first step.
Even though every ounce of our will scream of unacceptance, we really have to, for the sake of our mental and physical health. Sometimes all our daily struggles manifest itself in the form of sickness, so acceptance would be the way to avert all of this.

I agree with your thoughts.You can not have everything in life.Some people are more lucky than others and some are born with more privileges.Of course these people are not better that you and me! I think that you should chase your dreams and wishes because you might have them all one day!Is is not impossible,nothing is impossible in life sometimes.If you have positive energy then you might have the most of the things you want to achieve.You should not feel dissapointed or fustrated.
I wish you to succeed in everything you asked.

a pleasant day hotsummer,
indeed you have a point on that. accepting the reality will ease the burden. and what you have written have somehow hits me, that i should admit and accept the situation that i am going thru right now. that, it does not mean when i accepted it, i have given up. perhaps, i should lift it up to God, as He has a more better approach. or maybe, i should try it more harder.
thank you.

Acceptance is something that really does in fact lead to a lot of things just seeming a lot easier. At least that means that we are not deluding ourselves from the truth. Rather we are just trying to embrace it the best that we can. Which there is nothing really wrong with that for sure. There are just many times where if we fail to accept, than things are going to bad.
Then again, some people rather feel like they are going to feel at ease with something other than reality. There is just a lot of times where knowing will actually allow us to make more sound plans. It will actually allow us some sanity and will allow us to really accomplish much. At least that would be the theory of the matter.

Hi hotsummer,
Accepting things can be difficult at times but it's entirely up to you. Only you have the power to do that. People are unhappy because they fail to get what they want. Some people are impatient and feel very unhappy in not achieving the object of their desire. We must learn to live and let live. We can not always have things our way. Be contented and grateful with what you have. You have the right attitude in setting and striving hard towards your goals. One day you'll get there and the fruits of your labour will taste so much sweter. That's delayed gratification. Have a nice day.

I think adopting to the situation is what we humans are known for. I know many of us because of living in a hi-fi lifestyle need everything up to date that is why we have forgotten our inner instinct of adopting. All of us have many dreams, many wishes and desires that need to be fulfilled but as we know that this is reality and only certain things can be achieved at certain period of time and we should accept that gracefully. If i want to buy a range rover, no matter what I do i know that I cant purchase it because I have bills to pay, house to care for, needs to be met. Maybe someday in future where I have enough money that will be extra for me, then I can purchase the things I desire.
I use to also fight over the situation, but not materialistic way... situation with my husband.. but now i have learned to just accept it and let it be. Things will get better when we both work towards a promising goal together!! The best motivation is to keep dreaming and keeping the hope that those dreams will eventually come true :)
