The List

My friend and I have a list...not quite the "bucket list" but similiar in that it's a list of things we want to do someday. I wouldn't say it's things to do and see before dying, but more like a list of crazy fun things to do that we've never before done. I think about the list a lot and wonder why I haven't made the effort to do more about completing the list. I think I shall stop stalling and do something!

I have worried in the past about not being able to surrender and experience inner peace. I found a book (A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle) that explains it perfectly. "Whatever action you take in a state of inner resistance will create more outer resistance, and the universe will not be on your side; life will not be helpful. When you yield internally, when you surrender, a new dimension of consciousness opens up. Circumstances and people then become helpful. Coincidences happen."
