Kudos!

Never truer words - congratulations:-)

Yes!

Dhani says,

This is profound. People think by 'surrendering' to a person, situation, circumstance or event, they are losing something and that it's an inherent weakness to forgive. 'Surrendering' to Life is actually the great, contagious 60s philosophy of 'LET IT BE'. What you resist, persists.

waving my white flag to you

Tenacious_Badger11 says,

Thank you, everyone!
@Dhani: I totally agree with you there. Sometimes, it's best to "let it be", and most times, it really is for the best.

KharisJo says,

very wise memoir. resolution takes two and sometimes it just doesn't happen. "surrender" is an acknowledgement that we have decided to act in our own best interests and move on. Congrats on MOTD

lillybrook says,

Absolutely true. And so well said. Congrats on the MOTD.
