A release is when we willingly let go. A fall is when we take a ride that feels out of our control. The difference between how we perceive the two is a matter of our connection to the process.
A fall can become a release if, through our awareness, we surrender to the process.
A release can become a fall if, in the process of letting go, we make alternate plans.
Falling in love for example, can feel like an intense spiral out of control. A release into love should feel life giving.
It’s not a matter of us deciding to release or fall, it’s knowing that when we release or fall, we can change our connection to the process.
