Surrender refers to an internal state. Regardless of physical conditions, I can mentally reach for ease and flow. Maybe I can’t grasp them immediately, maybe I’m outwardly straining, but I can always point myself in a nonresistant direction.

The reason I want this or that is because I believe I will be happier in the having of it.
