The time may have arrived when it’s the moment to accept that you are not in charge, that something else is directing the whole show and that the best next step is surrender. When you surrender in any situation you are not giving up or giving in or letting go of a desire or idea. No, you are letting something greater guide you to finding what really should come next in your life. It might not be as you desire, but it will be what you most need.
All our love,

Remain open to all possibilities. You may think you have all the answers and have a good plan but other possibilities may have to play out, other options may actually lead to a better outcome. Loosen your grip a little and allow the divine intelligence of all that is to offer you something you hadn’t even thought of. Soften your mind, your heart, and your body so that you are prepared to receive rather than resist. It might just be time to acquiesce to a new and better idea of how things should be. It’s in that sweet spot between what you want and what you don’t know that the truth lies and a new possibility exists.
Sending you love,

The time eventually comes when there is no path visible except that of acquiescence. To acquiesce is not a failure but a logical next step as one faces a truth, either a truth from within or a truth from without, or perhaps a synchronous alignment of both something from within and something from without that will yield in no other way. Acquiescence then becomes the one and only step to take.
Acquiesce with awareness, just as nature’s seasons acquiesce to the new changes that a new season brings. Sometimes it’s just time to let go and take the next best step, whatever that may be. But with awareness you can choose the attitude you take and you can remain open to what will come next. For indeed, even in times of ending there is an opening to something new.

Sometimes change that is abrupt is more effective than slow and steady change, bringing much needed issues to the surface, forcing that which is most important to be faced. Mass change means facing personal needed change as well, for when something effects the many it also effects the individual. Acceptance of the power of change is part of the process, for to fight against something so determined is futile. How can one hold back the rising oceans or the phases of the moon or the heat of the sun? Sometimes acquiescence is the only answer. At other times, adaptability is the only means of survival. No matter the course to be taken the human heart will survive, so too will love, its staying power within and without. Adapt to that; acquiesce to love and all will be well.

Don’t give up. Change takes time. Its incremental creep may at times seem nonexistent, but something got started the moment a decision was made; something got implanted that won’t go away. Like a sharp needle it pokes and reminds, sticks and jabs at the most important times and will not be forgotten. There comes a time when acquiescence is the only strategy, and acquiescence to change means giving up the old ways and finally letting change have its way. In that moment change will finally take its rightful place, as inevitable, as so right, and as the one and only answer. Let change itself show you the way. You know what that means. You just have to accept its inevitability and throw yourself wholeheartedly into its arms. Once you do that you will never look back. Like a warrior you will travel forward with only unbending intent prodding you onward.
