While a lot of people were running inside from Hurricane Isaac, I was outside. Initially the rain + wind caught my attention. However, once I got outside, I zoomed in on the bamboo.
Notice that the stiffest tree is most easily cracked, while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind. — Bruce Lee
The storm was powerful. For me the bamboo was powerful and had clear meaning to me.
Strength in individuality.
Bamboo grows in individual stems and still maintains it’s strength.
When was the last time you acknowledged your individual strength?
Flexibility serves.
Through major storms, bamboo bends,bows, and survives. #BruceLeeSaidIt
What storms have you weathered?
Branch out with maturity.
Bamboo grows tall columns and individual stems, then branches out when it’s mature.
When was the last time you put “you” first?
Let me ask you…
Why wait for a storm to come?
What are you putting into place to root yourself through your personal storms and seasonal changes?
