Flexibility is a Virtue by Robert Ricciardelli

Trees are strong, yet the winds topple trees while bending grass remains. When we cling to our own positions and are not willing to explore and value the ideas and actions of others, we can be broken. Being flexible does not mean being wishy-washy. It means moving with the winds of time, change, and differences, while remaining solidly anchored to our foundation. Flexible and rooted outlasts the storms of life.
