Recently I wrote about going after your dreams once again when you didn’t achieve them the first or second time. Well, I made another go at mine this past weekend, and I have to tell you: I didn’t reach them.
Sure, there were other wonderful moments. New people encountered. Signs that I am on the right path. Encouragement to keep going. And I will…
But.
It’s time to surrender.
I’m learning, albeit slowly, how to keep moving forward while surrendering the situation. It sometimes seems like I’m living in a cloud as I attempt to keep my feet on the ground I know while my head is filled with this imagined reality.
So, it hasn’t happened yet. I don’t know how it’s going to happen. I just know it will.
The burning in our hearts for our dreams is a sign we are on the right track. Perhaps the puzzle pieces haven’t lined up. Heck, some of the puzzle pieces may not have arrived yet. But it’s coming together.
Right now though it’s about surrendering it once again. Being willing to hand the pieces I have in my fist that don’t fit right now to something bigger, someone bigger than my human self.
Have you ever felt the same?
Surrendering is a tough term for me. It used to mean a powerless state. Now I see it as the place I come to when I have to trust there’s something more guiding me, which I believe. I can’t do it all myself, even though I sometimes forget that. I have to surrender to something more to bring my dreams about.
How do you feel about surrender? What does it look like for you? Is there something you need to surrender, even for a time? Join me. Let’s see what happens.
Right now it’s the only happiness I see.
