Nate,
One has to pick and chose when to "let go, let God". The things that are beyond your personal/immediate control? Let it go. God/the universe/whatver ur belief will take are of it, if that is what you truly desire, man.
"Submission", though is really such a negative word. I prefer to just let the Higher Entity do its thing

"When Alexander saw the breadth of his domain, he wept for there were no more worlds to conquer." Plutach. Not true, for there are always more worlds to conquer.

Submission is such a strong word........I prefer compromise .....no two people are ever going to agree 100% on everything....but I think if you learn to compromise you will keep relations in tact longer
Young Man:
I feel you so deeply. I used to/still am in many respects the same way. When I was younger, for example, if I got angry, I litererally saw red. I would be so passionate about stuff that I would wear myself out just thinking and discussing it. Frankly, Life's lessons had to help me put blinders over my eyes (calm me down.)
Believe it or not, just this Saturday when my partner went out shopping, she brought me home 2 plaques (The Serenity Prayer, and Footprints). She said that she could see that I was struggling with something. I knew all of the things that you have been told, but the only way I seemed to have gotten IT was to experience Life. As I got older I became more reflective before I responded to situations, to make sure that I responded appropriately (first), if it was a personal matter I reflected, responded appropriately but I also expressed my feelings (you have to be strong to do that). I have learned over the years that GOD made Me a certain way for HIS purposes, and that's all good. I am NOT a Luke Warm Person, I don't straddle fences, when ever I undertake to do something, I go all out>>>even when I party (ed) my motto was: Why go if I'm not going to do it right...that got me in a few jams too!
I don't know your situation but I would say, don't lose your Passion or Risk Taking (These are Gifts for your unique Personality) BUT endeavor to Control your responses, give yourself time to reflect before acting or speaking; as time wears on, and you experience more of Life, you will get better, AND you will "discover" that the Energy that You bring is something that people will flow to. So don't kill that Beautiful Passionate Spirit, control it (first) by thoughtful reflection (even if just 5 minutes). On letting go, handle what is yours to handle>>>YOU! Hope this helps...this is what I got out of your Post, hope I was on the right track.

Thank you so much and I really appreciate your answer...
I fight so hard and sometimes I wonder why am I fighting so hard? Why can't I just let go and accept things and learn to live and enjoy the moment? I question my faith or if its just a lack of. A big part of me is tired of fighting but I also don't like it when I don't stand up for something I believe. I've been trying to balance things out and make the decision if something is worth the energy that its taking and i'm finding out somethings just aren't worth it and something I need to just let go and let God. For me that is so hard. I feel God is not of confusion so why do I need to question and wonder or even fight? I'm letting go and submitting in some areas of my life...
I need to get those framed up in the crib the Serenity Prayer and Footprints....
Thank you again for some very thoughtful answers I really appreciate it!

OMG MrB
I know exactly what you're talking about. In the past I always put myself out there just to feel like a complete azz after everything is said and done and you are left holding the bag. Now I don't let anything go. My BF hates it, he thinks that I'm being "too controlling" and he takes it as me trying to "be the man". But he doesn't understand that this was a survival method that didn't just flourish overnight and it surely won't disappear overnight.
Not to mention the fact that I'm always right
