My thoughts were flowing tonight as I wrote in my journal…and I share those words here.
I am running myself ragged pondering all that my mind wants to understand. I look at the events of the past and then the present circumstances – things as they are – trying to understand it all.
But then I see things as I do at this moment and realize I am never likely to comprehend why things happened as they did. And in the process, I will have wasted many of my “present moments.”
There is also the realization that no matter how much I want things to be different than they are, it is highly unlikely it will ever be that way.
Surrender,,,, indeed, radical surrender and acceptance are the only things that will likely lead to a reasonable peace of mind in my future.
