Lesson 62 - Surrender
“Very little grows on jagged rock.
Be ground. Be crumbled,
so wildflowers will come up
where you are.
You have been stony for too many years.
Try something different.
Surrender.”
Today's lesson is all about reading this quote and gaining some inspiration.
I think for me, I really like to analyse and break things down, which kind of defeats the purpose considering the quote. From my understanding, I take this quote as getting out of your comfort zone to try something new. If we surrender to what the Universe gives us, then it's meant to be exactly the way it is. I know the Universe doesn't give us too much that we can't handle. But this quote can be so much more on an emotional level. We've built ourselves up, based on our experiences, whether we've built a wall to protect ourselves, or we've just completely closed off on some matters, we've lived a certain way and react to certain situations based on our reality. Even if you haven't done this, maybe you've been taught/conditioned to think a particular way on topics, classed some subjects as taboo or have clear reactions to fixed situations. We've grown accustomed to living a conclusive way, wouldn't you say? This is totally fine because it's just our nature to protect ourselves or it's just the lives we live based on our environment, though in doing so, it doesn't allow us to be completely open. It's about being more open, allowing some different experiences to flow through and learning a different way of living by being more exposed.
That's just my two cents. What are your thoughts?
