Quote of the day:

“As I started to picture the trees in the storm, the answer began to dawn on me. The trees in the storm don't try to stand up straight and tall and erect. They allow themselves to bend and be blown with the wind. They understand the power of letting go. Those trees and those branches that try too hard to stand up strong and straight are the ones that break. Now is not the time for you to be strong, Julia, or you, too, will break.” –Julia Butterfly Hill

Consider: 

Sometimes, true strength is staying flexible and flowing with the circumstances; it’s letting go when situations beyond your reach change. If your character and your spirit are planted on solid ground, you will not be blown away. You can stay firm in your convictions and your values, yet bendable and free to go with the flow when necessary, at the same time.

Do you sometimes feel like certain things in your life are too difficult? Are you having a hard time accepting some new situation or conditions in your life? Take a moment to think about it. Ask yourself if there is anything you need to let go of in order to bend and flow with the circumstances, then you’ll find the needed strength to carry on.

Wishing you all the best,
