急水遇石绕道流
密竹迎风顺势弯
左右择路亦见海
风停叶落竹仍在
零石阻道有他法
不曲不弯必损折
we can always find suitable references to justify situations where we need to be determined and firmed, and when we need to compromise and be flexible.
In this poem, i use 2 phenomenons in nature to illustrate the value of being flexible and being able to make compromises.
Note that in the first example, the water takes a alternative route (maybe a longer way), in order to circumvent the obstacles (pebbles), but in the end, it still reaches its destination or goal.
In the second example, the bamboo is being flexible by yielding to great power (wind). But when the wind subsides, the bamboo is still left standing...straight. This is self preservation.
These 2 examples in nature demonstrates how that alternative solutions is always available, and there is seldom a need to hold strong to ones views of methods. Being flexible and yielding is some times necessary for self preservation, for what does not bend breaks.
