Let it be and let it go

When I was young, I listen to the radio  and there was this famous band of four who called themselves, " The Beatles" singing the song " let it be".  This was in the early 70's . The song was full of wisdom and part of the lyrics goes like this " when I find myself in times of trouble, mother may comes to me, speaking words of wisdom ...let it be .. let it be.  The song became one of the biggest hit in music history. Apart from its wonderful music, it carries with it a strong message.  These guys have telling of us to let it be.... and let it go, 30 years ago.

There are so many things that is beyond of our control and understanding. Fate is a mysterious creature . Sometimes, our fate can be controlled or altered  but most of the time , it is like a run away train. Any change in our fate maybe our fate as well. The weak blames fate, the not -so- strong accept fate and the strong ones try to change fate. But, the wise ones just watch fate and not re-acting to it. Letting fate unwind , reveal itself and letting it go.

Fate can be kind, cruel and fair. It does correspond to our actions and luck.  Our actions influence fate and our luck nurtures it. If we are hardworking, normally , we can become rich and successful. Even we worked tirelessly but without  luck, we can be poor and miserable. As I have said earlier, it behaves in a mysterious way.

When strangers met , they become good friends and they got married but people work together or have been friends, remained friends. Sometimes, good friends got married and strangers become friends. Some  people have been long lost friends and  sometimes, they meet up after several years  and developed in a life long partnership. Strange combinations and variable options. How is "who connected who", nobody knows the reason.  When it happens, just accept it and let it be.

Accepting fate, letting it unfold  and letting it be could make our life more contented, interesting and happier.

Namaste.
