Surrender

Its hard enough to go through life with its ups and downs and its twists and turns.

To want something and not get it, to give that test, job interview, relationship or work your best shot and yet not succeed….”Not good enough” being the feedback.

It’s frustrating enough when one has to go through it, and more heartbreaking when one sees their child go through it unable to take that pain away.

I experienced that pain today…..excruciating it was!

The event was nothing massive but nonetheless it was (in her eyes).

I was a witness to her journey, to her wanting that prize more than ever, to putting in that work. She missed that prize and she is devastated. The tears do not stop and the sadness does not disappear.

In moments like this my faith in higher powers is infinitely restored, of the presence of some other forces which guide us and does what is best for us.

The presence of fate and destiny.

In these small snippets of life, with a heavy heart all I have to do is – Surrender……and hope that the big force somewhere steers my little one’s ship to the port, she most deserves.
