Something Old... Something New...
the subtle art of surrender.
To experience something new I must surrender the expectation
that I know what should be.
I can’t always do this easily.
I too often compare my experience with those around me, using an inappropriate measuring stick for if I am “okay”, if I am “doing it right”.
I am steeped in my own identity, my own habits to the point where I may not even know HOW to try a new way of being.
It’s never the right time, I always need a nap first….
Until I don’t.
Until I surrender and succumb to the beautiful prayer of “I don’t know” and become open to the present moment.
