A gentle person can also hold steady strength.
Ophiopogon is a traditional herbal plant whose very name carries the imagery of winter days.
Picture a plant that, in the cold season, still grows quietly.
It is in no hurry to prove itself, and does not give up just because the weather changed.
A lady had been working a great deal lately, and everyone around her thought she was so strong.
Only she knew that on some nights, she felt tired too.
Later she began to learn: when she was tired, she could let herself rest; when she needed help, she could speak up.
She discovered that true strength is not never needing anyone — it is knowing how to care for your own condition.
Slowly send the cold, low days away, and welcome new warmth.
