To resist is the opposite of to embrace. Both require energy and effort. One requires the power to push back. The other the strength to let go.
For some reason we choose resistance even when we know letting go will lead to something better, more meaning or growth.
We are human. Imperfect. We slip into bad habits and ruts. We forget that we have the power to choose.
Just as quickly we can decide to embrace those things that scare us. Or cause us worry. We can let go of what weighs us down. We can accept – ourselves, each other, circumstances.
Letting go allows us to let in. To heal. To smile. To live fully. We can resist but it’s not the only option available to us.
What will you embrace today?
