| Buy A "Be Bamboo" Necklace |
We seldom see a bamboo plant collapsed. Through harsh weather and high winds, the bamboo remains standing strong. Some may measure strength by size and rigidity, but it is the flexibility of bamboo that allows it to sway in the wind and keeps it from being broken by the storms. A perfect example of this concept may be described best by a woman who wears this necklace. In her words, this is the story...
“When my ex-husband left, I felt completely broken - like a broken bag of bones on the floor. My healing progressed to where I felt like I was put together, but in a complete body cast, bandaged up and in the ICU. Next, I felt like glass - together without bandages, but still very fragile. My desire as I continued was to get stronger, but, not want to be as strong as iron or steel, where I was inflexible, but I wanted to be strong enough to withstand a heavy wind. My therapist said to me, "You want to be bamboo", to which I responded, EXACTLY!"
“Be Bamboo” is a philosophy that has had a profound effect on my life and has taught me to let go of cemented control and go with the flow. What does your Be Bamboo necklace mean to you?
