Surrender
Surrender. The things that are out of your hands do not deserve a permanent home in the sacred sanctuary of your mind.

The story goes like this: Imagine you’re out walking in the forest, and suddenly, you get struck by an arrow. Ouch! That first arrow represents the inevitable pain and difficulties we all face in life – physical pain, emotional heartbreak, loss, struggle and so on. […]

Because in her eyes, she will one day remember.. […]
