Choose What You Can Shape

When I stop gripping the things I cannot shape, I create more space for the things I can.

My mindset, my actions, my effort, my kindness, my courage etc these are mine. The rest belongs to life. Life keeps moving. It evolves on its own, whether I try to hold things in place or feel things slipping out of my control. Both states are temporary.

I can choose how I show up. I cannot control what comes next or how things turn out. And in that space between taking responsibility for my part and releasing the outcome, there is room for peace, gratitude and joy.
