Understand the power of surrender from "summary" of Longing and Letting Go by Holly Hillgardner
Surrender is not a sign of weakness, but rather a recognition of the limits of our control. It involves acknowledging that there are forces at work in the world that are beyond our influence. Surrender can be a powerful act of letting go, allowing us to release our grip on the need to control every aspect of our lives. When we surrender, we are able to open ourselves up to new possibilities and opportunities that we may not have seen before. It is a process of letting go of our attachments and expectations, freeing ourselves from the burden of trying to force things to go a certain way. Surrender allows us to trust in the flow of life, knowing that things will unfold as they are meant to. In surrendering, we are able to find peace and acceptance in the present moment. We are no longer fighting against the currents of life, but instead, we are able to float along with them. Surrendering does not mean giving up or resigning ourselves to defeat, but rather it is a way of aligning ourselves with the natural rhythm of life. By understanding the power of surrender, we are able to release ourselves from the grip of fear and anxiety. We are able to let go of the need to constantly strive and push for control, and instead, we can find peace in surrendering to the flow of life. Surrender is a practice that requires patience and trust, but the rewards are great. It is a way of opening ourselves up to the beauty and mystery of the unknown.
