Imagine that you are looking at a mountain. Would you say "No" to it? I mean, would refuse its reality? Would you criticize the way the mountain is because you believe that it should be different? Certainly not. Or... would you? Maybe you wouldn't say 'no' to a mountain or to a tree because you believe that this is the way they are and you consequently accept it. But you refuse to say 'yes' to other sides of reality when you contrast people's behavior, when you complain about some of your life's situations, when you feel victimized, judged, unfairly treated by a cruel destiny. "Reality" simply is, and you cannot demand that it shapes itself according to your wishes. What to do? You could try to detach yourself enough in order to perceive what "is" from a different perspective. If you are able to see from 'behind the screen', most of your negative feelings will disappear.
