Staying Open

There are some pretty extraordinary things going on in my life right now – 
too new and abstract to put them into words at the moment (definitely someday). 
I will say that experiencing these things firsthand has thrown what 
I believed was possible into a tizzy. 
It’s opened my world to infinite possibilities – 
which is both wonderful and a bit scary at the same time.
Throughout my life, I have tended to want to be in control.
I want to know what’s around the corner and
plan how things are going to go. 
What I am realizing more and more is that in doing so 
I am limiting the possibilities for my life. 
I am controlling the known and not letting in the unknown. 
So what if I just let go? 
What if I surrender and just let things happen naturally?
What if I get out of my own way?
What if I stay open to the possibility? 
I am only one person in this extraordinary and magical universe. 
And the events that I have experienced recently have shown me that there is so much more out there than I ever thought was possible. That I ever could have imagined before. 
So I will open my heart and soul and let go. Surrender. And wait with excited anticipation of the wonderfulness to unfold right before me. 
Is there anything in your life that you are holding onto and desperately trying to control?
Do you think it’s possible to take a deep breath and then let it go? 
Are you willing to take a step back from your own life and allow things to flow naturally? 
Can you stay open to the possibility? 
Definitely something to think about.
