Inner surrender occurs when we abandon all the strength we had to muster to fight against it, to strengthen ourselves in opposition to it…
Sometimes, our entire personality can be shaken.
Everything we have gathered to try to exist on our own, so many psychic forces that we can lay aside when we meet someone we trust.
It is toward mistrust that existence had directed our gaze.
It has become habitual and has spread to the point of destroying us entirely.
The infinite patience of the Being who waits is what invites us to trust.
Before Him, we are nothing but suffering and pathetic gesticulations.
Being is that which does not struggle within us, that which within us does not struggle against us, whatever we do.
The Being Awaiting,
The Hearth that softens our fiercest impulses.
The Embrace.
