How do you surrender to the randomness of life?

Asked by nebule (16452points) March 18th, 2011

I have always been a worrier about what unfortunate events my befall me. However, having recently been in a car accident (that wasn’t my fault and couldn’t have been avoided) it seems that my ordinary need to control life has been thrown even more into jeopardy.

I worry all the time about ‘bad’ things happening and it’s manifesting itself in bodily problems and preventing me from living life to the full. I would like my fellow jellies help.

Have you surrendered to the randomness of life in all its chaos? How do you life freely and without need to control everything? (Inevitably not being able to control everything) How do I surrender to fear without feeling crippled by it and constantly sick?

I feel like my body is always tense and trying to hold everything together yet only making me feel more imprisoned by the fear of the unknown.
