Surrender to reality

Imagine walking along the ocean shore. Nothing you could do, no command you could issue, would be able to stop the waves from rolling relentlessly upon the sand.

Surrender for a moment to that reality. And feel in its truth an intense connection to all that is.

You and everyone you know spend time and energy seeking to gain more control of the world around you. But what if that world is with you rather than around and apart from you?

What if the distinction between you and everything else is not as solid as you’ve assumed? Perhaps accepting and fully experiencing would bring you more fulfillment than seeking to dominate and control.

You cannot make the waves cease and neither could you make them start. Yet you can draw inspiration, perspective, and a sense of wonder from their eternal power.

Feel the strength you have to thrive within reality as it is. Improve what you can improve, accept what you can’t, and direct your efforts to expand life’s meaningful, enduring goodness.
