Every now and then, I find myself surrendering to love. This does not mean that I forget my values or my boundaries but simply that I stay completely open to what love can bring into my life.
Such things as new perspectives.
Such things as genuine affection
Such things as trust and care which really are part of the same coin, just different sides.
I am not suggesting you should do this. You must make your own decisions about such things. For me surrendering to love has always felt dangerous yet essential to my wellbeing.
I am clear that I know such things but I am not always clear on the doing of such things. Such things require me to take big leaps, when I am use to controlled baby steps.
It is becoming increasingly clear in this life of mine that leaps of faith are required to live fully and wholly in the most life-giving ways I can.
I will not strap wings upon my arms and pretend I am flying though. No, I must open my real heart, take real thoughtful risks, and see what this flying business is all about.
If you are willing, I will report back on my progress and perhaps learn a thing or two about yours….may you fly with grace and joy in your heart.
