I accept the grace of acceptance
and all of who and what I am
in the path in life I lead
there are good and tough things that I see
I pray to learn to love myself
and whatever it takes to just be
present in this now moment
aware of power of God deep inside of me
accepting acceptance is not resignation
it is a gift that understanding brings
allowing all of who I am
to be happy in life's greater plan
I ask for no apologies
I release any guilt and fear
I am who I am and won't judge myself
for what I do and how I appear
I see the good in me
so I may see the good in others too
for we reflect in life
the things we need to learn to do
dear Father and Mother God
help me to have the strength to be
confident in myself and happy to accomplish
what that may encompass so I can be free
I know I am ready to accept myself
so I can better participate
in whatever comes my way
and I choose to use the tools of love today
thank you God for showing me the way
to not judge myself or my fellow humans
to accept with a little more love and kindness
the path of goodwill that leads to a higher plan
