Are we in charge of our destiny? Living in an action driven society that tells us that constantly pursuing our goals will pay off and give us control. But what about the circumstances we cannot control?
When we are down we may think that revenge, fighting back, and avoiding our emotions is how to get past it. Surrendering? No way! That feels like defeat. But what if we change the way we view surrender?
Surrendering does not mean giving up! Kute Blackson, transformational teacher and author of the book “The Magic of Surrender," offers a modern day manual on how to live in surrender every day. Kute offers practical ideas and soul stirring wisdom that ignites the heart and inspires courageous action.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
