If you hold some sand in your fist, you wan't be able to 'seal' it all inside. Some will stay there, but some will slip down. If you replace sand with water, none of it will stay in your fist. It will all escape and leave your hand empty. This is how your power is: at times you have some control over your life (sand you can keep in your fist), other times you have no control (water that flows out). There are situations you simply cannot do anything about. They just are, no matter how upset or angry or unhappy or sorry they make you. If you try to fix them, change them, avoid them, ignore them, they still keep haunting you. So, instead of obsessing over your lack of power, convince yourself that it's better - "for you" - to let go, to release the need to lead the situation towards the direction you want. Admit that you may not be in control. For your own peace of mind.
