Maya Kollman – Surrendering to Love
Is the answer to a successful relationship found in your ability to surrender to love? If it is, wow, that requires a lot of trust. Obviously we’re willing to try because we are driven to couple up, yet connecting is extremely difficult.
According to relationship guru Maya Kollman, “loving somebody, really loving somebody and surrendering to love forces us to face our deepest fears which are ‘they’ll leave me or they’ll die.’”
Kollman says that love – that connection – is the key to our very survival as individuals.
She says we are really good at finding “the” partner who can fulfill us and help us actualize who we are.
Living with those same people, however, isn’t easy.
Kollman points out, “This is where a respectful and appropriate communication strategy is required” – a strategy she insists exists.
Surrendering to love is faith that the power of love can accomplish anything – even when you cannot foresee the outcome.
Instead of running from fear, instead of pushing it away or shoving it down, embrace it, and become intimate with it. Know it inside and outside.
