When the Universe Takes, It Makes Room for More
There’s a strange comfort in the idea that the universe knows what’s best for us, even when we don’t understand it at the time. Life has a way of orchestrating events to get us to where we need to be, even if that means taking things away from us before we’re ready.
And often, when those things are gone, we’re left feeling lost, confused, or even devastated. But if you look closely, there’s a quiet miracle that unfolds when you let go.
I’ve been thinking a lot about how things sometimes need to be taken from us, whether it’s a job, a relationship, or even a dream we’ve held close. The universe doesn’t take these things out of malice or cruelty; it takes them because, somewhere in the grand design, those things are no longer meant to be part of our journey. Sometimes, what we think we need is not what is best for us.
It’s not easy to let go. It feels unnatural, like walking away from something you’ve worked for or held dear.
But there’s a kind of peace that comes with surrendering to the flow of life, trusting that the universe has your back. When we let go of what no longer serves us, we make space for new opportunities, new growth, and new blessings that we couldn’t have imagined before.
