Icarus @ 59 # 253

2. Bend but don't break

Sway with the breeze don't fight against it, the gentle movement may look like compliance but it is really all about a harmonious existence. Soon the wind will blow itself out, changes will come to be seen as good or bad and a bend-but-don’t-break or go-with-the-natural-flow is a way of negotiating the journey ahead. This is a picture of my very busy desk and there is much work to be negotiated, but the notebook to the left of the keyboard contains a list of things to be done. It's the only way, tick it off and move on, sway with the breeze as you go. And now I slept late (a rare treat to get up after seven) so I am already swaying. I took one of my four little sisters to see this man singing this song, I wonder if she still has his autograph?
