Surrender

It’s my birthday today…. who cares?  Right, it is just another day of the year. But with all these tragic catastrophes happened past week – about how bad Japan being hit by earthquake and then tsunami, about colleagues from previous company passing away (quite suddenly), about relatives being diagnosed with health problems, … my heart is heavy.

Surrender – it’s the word that caught my ear and mind. On this early morning, I am thinking hard on this word – can I commit to that? Do I see the world and my life differently when I am willingly to surrender my whole self for the divine guidance? I still have trouble to realize what it means and to reconcile with own fears of losing control. At this moment, I can sense the answer is already there, deep inside. It’s the promise that I need to make.

I have not made any ‘birthday’ wish so far – perhaps it is the one. Am I ready for it?
