Life becomes a problem when we resist the discomfort some experiences trigger within us. The ego stores these resisted experiences, creating fear, tension, and the endless struggle to control circumstances in order to feel okay. Freedom comes through surrendering inner resistance, relaxing through discomfort, and allowing life to unfold without losing our natural state of awareness, love, and peace. © Sounds True Inc.
