This is from a couple of days ago, i am blogging on my website

I feel so amazingly flexible at the moment! Its fantastic! I was in the gym stretching & felt like i could’ve twisted myself into a pretzel…..and as I rode home down the esplanade in Darwin past the bent trees that survived Cyclone Tracey it just reinforced to me the importance of flexibility……flexibility in life…..Yes, Rigidity is needed for a strong core, foundation & to maintain poise…. but for best results shouldn’t this be balanced with flexibility in order to survive the ever-changing weathers of life?…..just like the palms from the cyclone we can bend & flex to suit the conditions & to meet our needs…..building strength each time as we ‘weather the storm’,…..but if we flex too far what could this mean?….compromising our beliefs in order to fit in or be accepted, falling back in line with the herd because its ‘safe’……what does this sort of hyperextension lead to? We may start to wither & become weak at our core….our core values….the very essence of our being….then helplessly give in, surrender & die….our ‘flame’ starts to flicker as our passion dries up from lack of ‘nutrition’ or ‘purpose’……So for me long term success & fulfillment in life – just like a palm tree….depends on flexibility of character forged through adversities but having well-established roots which draw nourishment from a stable foundation….Lovefreexo
