Fortitude. Strength. Determination. All of these signify a lack of weakness and the ability to stand firm in a storm. To many, strength is preferable over its opposite, but are there not benefits to both? Does not the twig break when it bends not? In this world of duality, you are free to choose. You move back and forth from strength to weakness, trying them out. Which feels best? Which is appropriate for the situation? And do not all situations constantly change as well?
Yours is not a world of “one size fits all.” There is no one solution, for there is no one situation or perspective. Learn to find peace with diversity, equanimity amidst imbalance. Strength and weakness are two ends of the same spectrum. Always can you return to the center when riding the arc of the pendulum becomes too unsettling. Settle in for the ride … this E-ticket ride of great adventure is why you are here. The choices you make and what you experience as a result are the price of admission.
