Surrender to what is beyond our control from "summary" of The Radical Acceptance of Everything by Ann Weiser Cornell
When we talk about surrendering to what is beyond our control, we are not talking about giving up or resigning ourselves to a passive acceptance of whatever happens. Instead, we are talking about a deep inner shift in our relationship to reality. This shift involves letting go of our resistance and struggle against the things we cannot change, and opening ourselves to a deeper sense of peace and acceptance. Surrendering to what is beyond our control means acknowledging that there are certain aspects of life that we simply cannot change or control no matter how hard we try. It means recognizing that there is a limit to our power and influence in the world, and that it is okay to let go of our need to control everything. When we surrender to what is beyond our control, we are not giving up our agency or our ability to make choices. Instead, we are surrendering our attachment to specific outcomes and our insistence that things be a certain way. We are letting go of our need to have things go according to our plans, and allowing ourselves to be more open and flexible in the face of uncertainty. Surrendering to what is beyond our control is an act of self-compassion and self-care. It is a way of acknowledging our own limitations and imperfections, and allowing ourselves to be human. It is a way of releasing ourselves from the burden of trying to control everything and trusting that whatever happens, we will be able to handle it.- Surrendering to what is beyond our control is an act of trust and faith in the unfolding of life. It is a recognition that there is a wisdom and intelligence in the universe that is greater than our own, and that we can trust in the process of life to guide us in the right direction. By surrendering to what is beyond our control, we can find a deeper sense of peace, acceptance, and resilience in the face of life's challenges.
