This morning I woke up to a day of deep snow, no electricity or telephone or heating. Quite rare for the south of france!I realised that I could not do anything at all about this. All my plans for completing urgent work tasks on my computer immediately evaporated. I had no choice but to surrender to the greater force and just go for a drive to a cafe.
Strangely, the immediate stress and lack of control turned into a sort of bliss. I felt this state of having no choice but to let go to be quite comforting and even natural.
Maybe we become most enlightened and most positive when we just let go of trying to control everything we do and, as a result, just flow more naturally instead?
