I'm still muddling through this concept. Let me give you a fore instance and perhaps you can help me understand through an actual event.
I'm walking up the stairs to my apartment. I have alot of groceries in my hands. I'm more than half way up the stairs when two of my neighbors decide to come down at the same time I was going up. They both bumped into me knocking the groceries out of my hands and ran the rest of the way down the stairs laughing. Of course my groceries fell thru the stairs and eggs broke, bottles shattered, etc. I was seething while I was cleaning up my groceries.
The reality of the moment shifted and changed two days later, I was no longer seething. When I accepted the reality as real and true, I retaliated. What was real and true in the moment wasn't two days later. Accepting the reality as real and true caused an action urge. I did something stupid on impulse after they had driven away, but fortunately, as my perception of reality changed when I cooled down, I was able to correct what I did. I was judging my neighbors harshly because I was accepting the reality as real and true in the moment.
Please help me understand how to work the Commitment to Accept,how it would apply to this situation and about accepting the reality as real and true.
Thanks for your help and understanding kp
