"Surrender
becomes so much easier when you realize the fleeting nature of all
experiences and that the world cannot give you anything of lasting
value. You then continue to meet people, to be involved in experiences
and activities, but without the wants and fears of the egoic self. That
is to say, you no longer demand that a situation, person, place, or
event should satisfy you or make you happy. Its passing and imperfect
nature is allowed to be. And the miracle is that when you are no longer
placing an impossible demand on it, every situation, person, place, or
event becomes not only satisfying but also more harmonious, more
peaceful."
- Eckhart Tolle
