Living Fully: The Wisdom of Accepting and Surrendering to Life

Writer's picture: Athena DemeterAthena Demeter


Many of us find it difficult to accept life as it is, to surrender to the events of our lives without trying to change or control them, leaving us with a sense of helplessness and many fears. As we move through life, exploring it, finding ourselves, and seeking fulfilment, we may be caught up in objecting to something that happened years ago or fighting to avoid something that could happen, we object, reject, deny, and ignore in a futile attempt to control the outcomes of our lives.

The greatest lesson we need to teach ourselves is to accept life with all its wildness and mysteriousness to truly love it. Love is the ultimate master of wisdom and the path to peace and true happiness.

But without acceptance, there can be no true love. You truly love yourself when you accept yourself as you are, without trying to improve yourself before you love it. If you look at self-love as an example, you will find that people who love and fully accept themselves, all that previously seemed to need fixing in their being, personality, and identity magically transform into inner strength and gifts.

And this will also happen in your life if you love and accept it fully. All challenges will transform into strength, everything you thought you had to fix will become a perfect skill, a gift, and a talent.

You must surrender, and let go of the need to control and fix life, life goes on and thrives no matter what happens before you are born, and after you die, life will go on and thrive, with or without you. Find a wise way to fulfill yourself and thrive, rather than trying to control and fix life. Learn from life how to be great, immortal, and infinite, as you are a reflection of life. Nothing can break life - not big events, explosions, stillness, coldness, heat, pressure, voids, or spaces. Everything leads to more life and aliveness. Remember, everything you encounter should lead you to more aliveness and life if you don't try to control or change things. Breathe in this simple fact about life carry it in your heart, and thrive.
