Thank you so much for reading and for leaving such a thoughtful comment. Surrendering is never weakness, it’s one of the most powerful things you can do.
What I would advise is to just show up in the way you know how—and the rest isn’t up to you. If you’re thinking about this from a romantic standpoint with somebody you want to be with/or are with already, I know how to feel.
It was the same for me with my ex-partner. Constantly trying to be there and show her how much I loved her. It doesn’t work. You put such an immense pressure on yourself to show up in a certain way that it no longer feels natural and quickly becomes forced.
What is meant for you will definitely find you! Things always have a way of working out as they’re meant to.
Good luck, and I hope you are having a lovely weekend 😊
Glad to see this pop up as a notification and read this entire blog since this is what I need to read and apply this upon myself.
Hey Ayad! Thanks for reading and appreciate you taking the time to comment. Hope it helped and you took one thing away from it. Have a good weekend!
Hey Stefano! You’re welcome. I’m trying to take everything that you wrote here and trying to feel the way you do now as well. You too!
Happy to help my friend!
Happy for the help my friend!
Beautiful quote from Lao Tzu of practicing action with detachment.
I love Lao Tzu, his ideas are awesome and always resonate with me!
Thank you for this, Stefano. I didn’t realize how much I needed the reminder to stop gripping so tightly—to plans, to outcomes, to people.
The quote about trusting the unfolding really landed for me.
I’m in a space right now where I deeply want to be chosen, seen, loved...
and yet I know that clinging to control only distances me from what’s real.
This post felt like a quiet invitation back to surrender.
Not in weakness, but in strength.
In trust that what’s meant for me will find me—especially when I’m fully myself.
Grateful for these words. They softened something inside me today.
