Fighting against reality won't change anything , rather it makes your life miserable and won't change anything. It just like an accident that just occured, no matter how hard ou try to fight , you can't actually make the accident to go backwards, this is how fighting reality looks like Let us say that you are in the middle of traffic , that is the reality , but if you allow yourself to become frustrated under this situation, you loose yourself and start fighting against it. You grip the wheel so tight, slam the horn, well this does not actually change anything as the traffic does not care. But i assure you , the only thing that will change is how awful you begin to feel.

Definitely , it will hurt you as that moment is so unpleasant and nobody likes it. But if you stay stocked in this is not fair and okay , it keeps you trapped. But if you can take and deep breath and agree that this actually happened. This actually frees up some energy. Acceptance is the best solution , this is because you can not waste your energy fighting a reality that is already there.

It might be a little bit weird and complicated, but we tend to gain more power to act than resistance we do to us. So incase you find yourself in the middle of something like this or similar to this, just remind yourself that this is reality and that you can not do anything to change it at the moment , but you can actually take a better approach to prevent it from happening next time.
