absent (november 20) write about a truth you were afraid to accept

 A truth I was afraid to accept was that I can’t always control everything around me. For a long time, I tried to make everything go my way, but I realized that some things are beyond my control. Accepting this was difficult because it meant I had to let go of the constant need for certainty. Once I accepted it, I felt a sense of relief and freedom. It taught me to focus on what I can control and be at peace with what I can’t.
