Where do you find acceptance?

Topic #103:

Where do you find acceptance? For your ideas? For the secret notions you have for who you really want to be? Or think you are? Who are the friends, family or co-workers who are most accepting of your true self? And how do they demonstrate their acceptance? What is different about how they treat you than other people?

  1. The most accepting, non judgmental people I have ever come across are in my 12 step program. I have shared so much of myself with these people knowing for sure that the things I have shared will go no further. No matter what I share it stays right there.

  2. I find acceptance in the blogsphere. The blogsphere is full of friendly faces, humble folk without temptation. So come on down to the blogsphere and meet some friends of mine!

  3. THE RULE IS SIMPLE! EVERY HUMAN FINDS IT EASY TO BELONG WHERE HE OR SHE IS VALUED. SO I WOULD SAY THE VALUE ANY ENVIROMENT PLACES ON MY PERSONALITY DETERMINES MY STAY OR DEPARTURE.

  4. In my writer’s group and at writer’s conventions. No one thinks someone, who is not in their 20s anymore, is weird if you like skull-covered clothing and can’t get enough Living Dead dolls or toy robots. It’s OK to be a kid forever in the horror/sci-fi field. My writer’s group covers all genres from historical fiction to poetry to flash fiction to the undefinable – the most accepting, nonjudgmental group of people I’ve ever had the pleasure to know!

  5. The question is where do I find acceptance and the simple answer is in my heart, in my soul, in my brain. I have lived many years, have experienced many things, and I have learned that life is worth living 1 second at a time and that I will do what is right because it is right. That at the end of the day when I look in the mirror I will be proud of the person I see in the reflection.

  6. Se sou aceita com as minhas idéias pelas pessoas, no meu blog eu sei que sou, por estar muito feliz com ele. Desde que comecei e até o dia de hoje noto uma diferença enorme, começaram a notar que existo.
    Sou uma pessoa muito franca, falo tudo que penso, nada tenho a esconder.
    Se gostam de mim pelo que sou, ótimo, se não paciência sou assim e não mudarei.
    Sou do signo de Leão, sei que tenho um genio forte, mas sou boa de coração e nunca farei mal a qualquer pessoa.
    Abraços a todos!
    Mina!

  7. Good question. Personally, I do not worry about “social acceptance”. I live my life as I wish to, not how others may wish me to live it.

    I guess we will find out when we hit the local supermarket as a family! 🙂
