Surrender to the Phone

I sometimes get great satisfaction from surrendering. To give in to the whim of the universe, or to time, or more specifically to a phone call, when I know I need to get off the phone, but instead I stay on and let the conversation happen until it's over more naturally. I don't do this very often, but if I don't truly need to hang up, and I choose to stay on the phone, sitting in my parked car, with my mother or an old friend, I just feel better.
