“The moment you completely accept your non-peace, your non-peace becomes transmuted into peace. Anything you accept fully will get you there and will take you into peace. This is the miracle of surrender.
When you accept what is, every moment is the best. That is enlightenment.
Having gone beyond the mind-made opposites, you become like a deep lake. The outer situation of your life and whatever happens there is the surface of the lake. Sometimes calm, sometimes windy and rough, according to the cycles and seasons. Deep down, however, the lake is always undisturbed.
You can enjoy them, play with them, create new forms, and appreciate the beauty of it all. But there will be no need to attach yourself to any of it.”
The Power Of Now – A Guide To Spiritual Enlightenment, Eckhart Tolle, p. 194-195.
