This word has been placed in front of me several times this week which made me wonder. Do I even really know what it means to me?
I realized that to me it feels a-lot like the definition of giving up. Giving in. Allowing the inevitable to roll right over you without so much as a fight. The idea, it turns out, is counterintuitive to my core.
Ok, so it seems I will need to sit with this a bit more!
Perhaps it means just letting go of what we perceive to be control. Finding a single moment of peace in the despair, or hope in the discomfort.
Diving deeper into it I begin to see that it is ironically the opposite of giving up.
It is just giving.
To gift yourself the freedom to allow your best path to illuminate. Gifting your tissues permission to let go of the grip they have on what “should” or “could” be.
Surrender to me is the ultimate gift of allowing the past to be cleansed while leaving the future to be carved from the thoughts I create and the actions I take today.
Namaste to all
