Surrender
Surrender has never been my favorite word. I always thought it had only one meaning, which was to lose and be defeated. There is also a spiritual meaning to the word. To surrender is to accept that there is a waxing and waning rhythm to events and to trust that good things can happen without needing to control them. -Peter Block Stewardship
Sometimes I find it difficult to be human and to accept the ebb and flow of life. I want things to happen now. I think I need to control life or something terrible is going to happen. Why can’t I just let go and surrender? It would be so much easier. Sometimes being human is just plain hard. It’s not all in our control and the sooner we accept that the sooner we get to move on.
