You demonstrate a keen understanding of the creative potential within word choices.
I observe ‘surrender’ and ‘submission’ suggest that something is lost whereas ‘acceptance’ and ‘allowance’ suggest that something is gained. That something is ‘responsibility’.
One might only change those things for which one is responsible. One does well to accept and allow one’s responsibility to shape change in the Gracious Universe we share. ‘Surrender’, like ‘submission’, belies one’s potential to effect change. One is here for the purpose of shaping the awareness about change and how it might be directed.
Namaste.
