Surrender

“Until you practice surrender, the spiritual dimension is something you read about, talk about, get excited about, write books about, think about, believe in — or don’t, as the case may be. It makes no difference. Not until you surrender does it become a living reality in your life.” ~Eckhart Tolle

It is important to not only read and want to grow, but you must make these practices part of your life.  I was a controlling person, trying to control everything in my life to make everyone happy and I was a crazy woman.  One of the best lessons that I have learned in life is to surrender and go with the flow of life.  The day or event might not be what I had planned or envisioned, but if I go with the flow and surrender there is less strife and stress in my life and it usually was better than my vision.

In what ways do you surrender or try to control your life?
