I do think there is a lot of surrender ...Yes, true. I do think there is a lot of surrender that comes with motherhood, it would be such a tough ride if you didn't. And yes, so much more space for joy when you do. The surrender I have felt over the last six months or so is bigger, if that makes sense. A shift to really trusting that the bigger picture, or plan, and trusting that it will unfold as it should without me having to control every bit of that journey.

Circumstances made it a necessity, but that doesn't mean I haven't fought it all the way. <br /><br />Have a beautiful weekend. <br />Kim https://www.blogger.com/profile/08476209107377395745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501164039766203202.post-74363441554953076822017-08-30T09:51:44.230-04:002017-08-30T09:51:44.230-04:00oh my, beautiful post! I found that I surrendered...oh my, beautiful post! I found that I surrendered by letting go of my adult daughter when she and her husband moved to CA (sniff!). To my delight, the universe (God for me) is having my daughter and son in law relocating to Delaware by the end of October. a three hour distance drive. I find myself jealous of friends whose adult children live five minute drive aways. But I stop myself and focus on what are my joys my blessings. <br /><br />comparing ourselves to others is the worst punishment we do to ourselves. Surrendering to acceptance well that is the key to contentment.karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09252685705241032079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501164039766203202.post-33204250268556762872017-08-29T18:50:35.042-04:002017-08-29T18:50:35.042-04:00Hi Kim!

But since becoming a mother, with all its unique challenges, I've learned to let go more often than I hang on. I find my life is left with more space for joy that way. It's not always easy, but pretty much the best decision every time. <3Yanichttps://familyfaithfoodfabric.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501164039766203202.post-75736381394318757552017-08-29T11:03:42.013-04:002017-08-29T11:03:42.013-04:00Yes!

I'm glad you had a good summer. Reece is getting so tall! I am not good at surrendering. I often feel that the Universe does not have my back at all, which I know is probably not true, but it's an old, ingrained sense. I am trying to be more flexible and to let it all flow into me more easily.Jennifer Hayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04685253944514672324noreply@blogger.com
