Learn how surrendering can allow us to experience joys that we never knew existed.
For most people, life is described using verbs such as seeking, striving, and searching. We depict our lives as a struggle, where we fight against despair and disaster and seek out joy and freedom.
But would you believe me if I told you that your take on life is completely incorrect, and that your search for peace, happiness, and liberation can be attained by simply surrendering instead of resisting?
Humans are dualistic by nature. We are both of spirit/source energy and ego persona/matter. When we are about three years old, we start developing our sense of self/individually. This happens primarily by labeling and judging our perception of what is appearing.
If we never learn to temper this as we grow older, we separate from our spirit as well as from others. This leads to feelings of loneliness, isolation, and even abandonment. We have ultimately abandoned our spiritual self through constant separation.
"Chase after what inspires you.
Learn from what has broken you.
Appreciate what has mended you.
Embrace those who love you.
Know your worth, and honor every single piece of your growth."
