I'm quite a bit older than you are and yes, there have been a lot of times I've had to surrender to situations that I had no control over. I actually appreciate surrendering because it stops me from over stressing myself, I get to "see" how the situation plays out without the effort of trying to control it which could very well end up worse off than how it would play out naturally.
I am not always good at surrendering but I'm getting better at it.
