Surrendering

A man carried a heavy sack everywhere he went—day and night, through joy and sorrow. He never looked inside, only tightened his grip. One day, weary and broken, he met a quiet Stranger who asked, “Why not give me the burden?”

The man hesitated. “It’s mine.”

“But it’s crushing you,” said the Stranger.

With trembling hands, the man let go. The sack fell open—inside were fears, regrets, pride, and plans he never trusted anyone to hold. The Stranger smiled, lifted the load, and in return handed him peace.#embracevulnerability
