letting go
I have always been a control freak. But lately I've been realizing that strength isn't always feeling in control, but accepting that you just can't control things that happen in your life somtimes and accepting this fact with grace. Bad things happen. There are always going to be rough patches. But depression is thinking that the past is happening in the present moment. The past is the past, and holding on to that will never let you move forward. Sometimes, you just have to let it go.
A man asks his rabbi, "Why does God write the law on our hearts? Why not in our hearts? It's the inside of my heart that needs God." The rabbi answered, "God never forces anything into a human heart. He writes the word on our hearts so that when our hearts break, God falls in."
