You have to learn to bend and be flexible so you can get through the tough times in life. If you don’t have the flexibility, it’s more likely that something will knock you down. Maybe not right away but eventually.

Remember all the videos you see when there’s a hurricane? All the trees are bending this way and that as the massive winds are trying to flatten everything in its wake.

Wouldn’t you like to be left standing after the storm is over? Whatever storm is brewing in your life? Let it blow and bend with it. You don’t have to be perfectly straight upright for people to respect you. They will respect whomever survives.

How can you practice bending? Is that different than how you’ve acted in the past? Let us know in the comments.
