Another Word for the Wise-Acceptance

My right hand does not like my new mouse. It keeps trying to do what seems normal. But normal doesn't exist with twitchy nerves and long standing pain. So this morning I faced that awful/awesome word, Acceptance. I had to type, I had to use the keyboard, I had to work around my habit-driven thumb. So I changed which hand is using the mouse. Maybe forever -- maybe just for now. And to do that I had to accept I cannot control my thumb's habits. Perhaps I need a 12-step program for retraining thumbs. But until then...
Namaste
