I'm stubborn. I can dig in my heels and become immovable. I also have a strong enough will to be able to pull others along with me sometimes. As good as that can feel in the moment, it never gets me very far. After the hit of whatever my primal brain sends out fades, acting in that way only turns to shame.
Learning to flow and flex in situations is my joyful way of dealing with things. It allows me to stay light and move in the direction the energy is headed. It reminds me of yoga practice in a way. I stay rooted in my core and foundation, but I find lots of different ways to bend within that connection.
