💧Willow: “Swaying Is Also a Form of Strength”

by Aqua, the Water Drop Goddess

Every time the wind blows, the branches sway,
but they don’t break.
Some trees stand strong, reaching toward the sky.

But the willow knows:
swaying is also a form of strength.

Sometimes, it stands quietly, going with the flow rather than resisting.
Even if today’s wind is strong, it’s okay—you don’t have to fight it.
Because a supple heart won’t break. 💧🌿
