“Surrender” is my new word.<\/p>\n

I whisper it a dozen times a day, as I call upon it…<\/p>\n

“Surrender to the rain.”<\/p>\n

“Surrender to my laugh.”<\/p>\n

“Surrender to the possibility that I might die today.”<\/p>\n

“Surrender my annoyance.”<\/p>\n

“Surrender my anger.”<\/p>\n

“Surrender my attachment to my ego.”<\/p>\n

“Surrender my feelings of fear.”<\/p>\n

“Surrender my worries.”<\/p>\n

“Surrender my pride.”<\/p>\n

“Surrender my concept of time.”<\/p>\n

“Surrender to my intuitions.”<\/p>\n

“Surrender to the truth of my heart.”<\/p>\n

“Surrender to love.”<\/p>\n

Who ever knew that letting go of everything could feel SO good?!<\/p>\n

And thus I proceed…<\/p>\n

Surrendering my future.<\/p>\n

In Ecuador.<\/p>\n

In ANYONE ever thought for one second that I have any idea what I’m doing…I would just like to surrender for the record…<\/p>\n

That I have NONE.<\/p>\n
