Bend, but don’t break!
(第17期)
 
 

  One of my fondest memories as a child is going to the river and sitting idly on the bank. There I would enjoy the peace and quiet, watch the water rush downstream and listen to the chirping of birds and the rustling of leaves. I would also watch the bamboo trees bend under pressure from the wind and then watch them return gracefully to their original position after the wind had died down.
When I think about the bamboo tree’s ability to return to its original position, the word “resilience”comes to mind.
Have you ever felt like you are about to snap? Have you ever felt like you are at your breaking point? Thankfully, you have survived the experience and lived to talk about it.
During the experience you probably felt a mix of emotions that threatened your health. You felt emotionally drained, mentally exhausted and you most likely endured unpleasant physical symptoms.
Life is a mixture of good times and bad times, happy moments and unhappy moments. The next time you are experiencing one of those bad times or unhappy moments that take you close to your breaking point, bend, but don’t break. Try your best not to let the situation get the better of you.
A measure of hope will take you through the unpleasant ordeal. With hope for a better tomorrow or a better situation, things may not be as bad as they seem to be. The unpleasant ordeal may be easier to deal with if the end result is worth having.
If the going gets tough and you are at your breaking point, show resilience. Like the bamboo tree, bend, but don’t break!
