Reeds in the wind

A little clump of reeds starting to bend with the strengthening wind, under a darkening sky - seemed like a very appropriate image for today as I face some challenges. I remembered the various fables about reeds being able to bend with the storm whilst still being firmly rooted in the ground, and thus avoiding being broken, unlike an enormous rigid tree. The value of flexibility. The belief that all will be well once the storm has passed.
