“Whoever is soft and yielding is a disciple of life. The hard and stiff will be broken. The soft and supple will prevail.”

Next August Wendy and I are planning an extended vacation to Alaska and northern Canada with some close friends.?Among our various excursions is a dog-sled outing which has gotten rave reviews.
Getting around these areas in winter usually involves snow machines, dog sleds, or snow shoes — especially if you live outside a city.?Even with all of their modern shock absorbing technology, snow machines with their many plastic and metal parts seem to have a good many mechanical problems compared to the softer, more yielding materials made by nature.
EXERCISE:
Where in your life has being soft and yielding versus hard and stiff helped you prevail??What does being a disciple of life mean to you?
Please reply to this post with your thoughts.
