Control

Do you still think you can control situations
and force them to fit your desires?

Do you also think you can contain the wind,
make the rain stop by praying for it to be so,
or induce the sun to create a happy day, just for you?

Let go, let go,
and instead of rejecting what is,
embrace it.

Open your eyes to the way things are.
And when the wind blows, wear a scarf,
if it rains, take an umbrella,
and when the sun shines, shed your layers and put on sunglasses.

Let go, let go,
and instead of rejecting what is,
embrace it.

  1. Funny when I read this I was patting myself on the back for not ever wishing to control the weather when I realised 1) I was taking your words a little too literally and 2)I do try and control the emotions of others 'Please just be happy so I can be' I shall try to embrace. Hx
