ACCEPTANCE, Bijo Karikkarappally

 Acceptance - the state of being acceptable and accepted; "torn jeans received no acceptance at the country club" situation, state of affairs - the general state of things; the combination of circumstances at a given time; "the present international situation is dangerous"; "wondered how such a state of affairs had come about"; "eternal truths will be neither true nor eternal unless they have fresh meaning for every new social situation"- Franklin D. Roosevelt

Acceptance is the acknowledgement, recognition - the state or quality of being recognized or acknowledged; "the partners were delighted with the recognition of their work"; "she seems to avoid much in the way of recognition or acknowledgement of feminist work prior to her own"

Welcome - the state of being welcome; "don't outstay your welcome"

Acceptance - the act of accepting with approval; favourable reception; "its adoption by society"; "the proposal found wide acceptance"

Embrace, bosom - a close affectionate and protective acceptance; "his willing embrace of new ideas"; "in the bosom of the family"

Approval, approving, blessing - the formal act of approving; "he gave the project his blessing"; "his decision merited the approval of any sensible person"

The term acceptance is defined as a noun, in which it shows to have three different meanings. The first is known as the act of taking or receiving something offered. For example, if someone is giving you a gift and you receive it, then that person has accepted the gift; therefore, having acceptance. Another definition of acceptance has to deal with positive welcome; favour and endorsement. In which, a person could like someone and, have acceptance for them due to their approval of that person. The third description of acceptance is that it can be act of believing or assenting. For instance, Christians believe (accept) that Jesus Christ is their Lord and Savoir. Acceptance – "An express act or implication by conduct that manifests assent to the terms of an offer in a manner invited or required by the offer so that a binding contract is formed. Acceptance is the exercise of power conferred by an offer by performance of some act. It is the act of a person to whom something is offered of tendered by another, whereby the offered demonstrates through an act invited by the offer an intention of retaining the subject of the offer." (Chirelstein, 2001)
