There is a basic existential fear
around the idea of surrender,
as if one is being taken over
by something other than oneself.
The fear of the droplet of water
losing itself in the ocean.
It is another metaphor
that misleads.
The droplet
is always
just the ocean.
Only the ocean is real.
So, acting from the source
is not other than who I am,
it is the truest part of
I Am.
It comes with a sense of:
Authenticity
Integrity
Honesty
Alignment
Confidence but not arrogance
Rightness but not righteousness
Appropriateness
Clarity
Flow
Zero resistance
Inner peace and resolution
Even joy
Knowing without knowing anything
Alive
Responsive and responsible
