Doesn't quite feel like th...Aaah....surrender. Doesn't quite feel like the release that I want to believe comes naturally with the territory. You've got me thinking now - why is it so hard? Why does control [or the illusion of control] feel more comfortable. Here's my 2 cents. I think we have to surrender "to..." To something. To what you may ask. But that is the essence of the dilemma. What are you willing to surrender to? What will you put your faith in? What can you trust? As the woman who got me to jump out of an airplane, I have no doubts in your ability to let faith and trust carry you. Think about what you can place them in. That day we skydived, I had faith in the guides who would jump with us. I had trust in the equipment and the multiple checks everyone did on it. I believed in the quality of the instructions we were given. And I had complete faith in our intentions! So what can you safely and sweetly surrender to...<br /><br />Brooke Federhttp://www.shoutyourjoy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8023095762071007377.post-54635430995473056232014-04-24T09:04:05.734-04:002014-04-24T09:04:05.734-04:00Probably you just need to get on a boat in the isl...Probably you just need to get on a boat in the islands for a month...or two.
