Godzilla and the Pink Footsie Camouflage Pajamas

     You don't have to agree or approve of an individual in order to accept them.  To impede an individuals' form of expression is criminal to that individual...you are denying the reality of the relationship...all for the purpose of attempting to change someones else undesirable trait(s).  Any and all actions or behaviors one may deem as undesirable (or "unacceptable") are rarely done to intentionally thwart or to be compromising.  These are forms of expression typically done through natural means of living.  Take for example a pet dog.  This animal means no ill will by chewing on furniture, it is its instinct.  This animal would be just as happy if it had a chew toy.  When faced with something we do not agree with, we instantly make this a personal attack, when in fact it may be anything other then that.  When we learn to be accepting, we will find peace with that individual.  Sometimes in order to accept, we may need to find compromise in the relationship, this is where communication lays the foundation for growth.  Remember, you can not change someone, you can only change yourself!
