Surrender…a word usually associated with defeat, weakness, giving up…
Yet in the realm of Spirit, it is the highest…
To surrender to the Universe is to be at one with It…
How is that so? It defies logic…
At every moment in life, at every point, there is a struggle…a struggle against a force internal or external…and to triumph that struggle is strength…
To surrender in this struggle will mean defeat…
But then again, reflecting…
Our best moments, our glorious moments…small or large, came when we felt at ease…when the question of victory or defeat ceased to trouble us…when we entered into a mystical zen mode that seemed to transcend the struggle..
Yes, that is certainly higher than a victory…that is beyond the fear of defeat and temptation of success…
When doubts melted away…when fear vanished..when success felt insignificant…when all that mattered was the present..
The past ceased to exist..the future not of concern…and we flow in the now…
To surrender then means to flow…
To flow with the will of the Universe..
To flow with the internal world, to flow with the external world…
To flow with joy, to flow with wonder…
Giving up the importance of our desires, giving up the importance of our worries…
Giving up the importance of our pride, giving up our doubts…
Let us flow with the Universe, laughing and loving…
