It is not apathy.  It is acceptance that fighting the current will only exhaust you.  It is acceptance that the best way to move in a certain direction is to use the power of the river, sensing how things are and just gently dipping down an arm as a tiller, so that you might catch the fork of the river that appeals to you.<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"4\" color=\"#660066\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"3\" color=\"#660066\">Surrendering to the flow can also be recognition that if you allow life to propel you, you can do so easily and gracefully, with very little effort indeed.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"3\" color=\"#660066\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Look forward, feel the power and use it.  If you spend your time looking back at what has been, you will not see the wonderful things flowing toward you, nor will you notice the approaching rapids until it is too late to avoid them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Relax into the flow.  Steer yourself gently, taking advantage of the movement and current which surround you.  Watch and feel how things are and gently join the flow of life.<\/p>\n<p><span> <\/span><br \/>\n<span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/i57.photobucket.com\/albums\/g208\/ammango\/angel_love\/water\/112551YEqX779V.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span> <\/span><br \/>\n<span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong><em>Here is a little prayer for today:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"3\" color=\"#660066\">Today I relax into my life, feeling and knowing myself as a part of all that is.
