Releasing Control

It's difficult releasing control of life, when we're unsure of what the future will bring. Although we carefully plan our life, sometimes things don't always turn out the way we intend. As the unexpected occurs, the path which we are so familiar with begins to change. The more we lose control of our life, the more uncomfortable we become. But in hindsight, there is a reason for every twist and turn that occurs in our life. If we open ourselves to what the universe has planned, we may be pleasantly surprised at the heights we will be able to soar. Today, take a deep breath and release control of all that is preventing you from living your passion. Know that the plans you make may need to change in order for you to attain what you desire. So strive to be open and flexible in receiving all that comes to you.

Controlling our life would be like controlling the ocean, an impossible feat...

(It seems as if the more I try to control my life, the more it turns upside down. I'm getting used to expecting the unexpected. What I know to be true is that more we're connected to others, the more adaptable to change we have to be. Life sure keeps me on my toes and I wouldn't have it any other way.)
