Surrender to your life path

I am slowly learning to surrender to the challenging aspects of my life. There is no point in battling, feeling resentful or sorry for myself - I chose my path - this is all my own doing!

How do I cope when life is so uncertain? I try to stay in the moment, in the day. Surrender is 'arms wide open' acceptance of your life path. It takes courage, but remember you are not alone: ask for spiritual guidance in your meditation and trust the direction revealed.

Morning Lorraine, just wanted to leave a quick comment re surrendering to your life path blog....
I believe that is one of the hardest human experiences we are here to conquer...letting go of trying to control each and every event that takes place in our lives, be them good or not so good ones.
I have learnt that the hard way (as most of us tend to do haha), that when we are fighting against our experiences with all our might, we are not only consuming great amounts of our precious energy, but we are also missing out on what lesson that life experience is really meant to teach us...most times then having to repeat it (aaargghhhh!), just to get it right.
Yes it can appear uncomfortable at times to relinquish our control over our life situations, but bump along for the ride, who knows where it may end up taking you, better still, who knows what the next lesson may have in store for you....saves repeating the unpleasant one time and time again.
Life is all about our experiences, lets conserve our energies, and take each and every day as it comes.
A great tip I would like to share is when in the midst of a not so pleasant experience, instead of trying to control the outcome, remind yourself of a recent pleasant experience, recalling the same energy you felt whilst having a 'wow' of a time. It is a good distraction, without trying to control your current situation, and works as a great tool to manifest positive experiences back to you.
