Letting go is a state of mind-and body.
It is a light,easy feeling free of a burden,a quiet that settles over you like a cosmic tranquilizer.
It is the feeling that you will find a good mate when the time is right,a sense of inner peace,of
accepting life just as it unfolds.
What you letting go of is the struggle,the panic,the longing for things to be other than they are.
Letting go means that,for the time being,your worry,your discouragement,your apprehension have all vanished.
You are who you are,life is what it is,and somehow it is all okay.
Letting go is a sign of deep trust that things will work out as they should.
Its like putting down your sail and your oars and casting yourself adrift on the sea,rather than
rowing as hard as you can in one direction.
Letting go is relinquishing control,giving up the effort to force your boat in one direction by
manipulating your situation and the people around you.
It is turning your boat over to fate,recognizing that fortune never comes in the form you expect,
and trusting the natural flow of the universe.
To let go is to assume an attitude of patient optimism,to be sure,not exactly where your boat is
headed nor when it will be arrive,but that you are moving in a positive direction,and that-
when the time is right--you will discover the particular lush shore toward which you are most certainly headed.
Letting go is recognizing that you don't have all the answers.
You don't know enough to be able to control everything.
You can work with the forces in the universe that make things happen,but you don't have to make
everything happen yourself.Trust that things will work out beautifully for you.
Know that,no matter what happens,it will work itself out for the best.
Believe that whatever is in store for you is right and good as it should be.
Letting go is not something you can achieve by willing it.
It is something that happens to you.Like grace,it comes to you not because you earned it
or because anything in particular to"get"it.Rather,it steals unobtrusively over you,
and one day you take a look and discover that--sometime,you aren't sure when--you let go.
You gave up.You gave in.You stop struggling.Or something let go of you.
(a quote from one of the book of Ms.Susan Page)
...If we understand what letting go is,it turns out it's not a contradiction at all...
