Let life shape you

This photo of a Cypress tree bent and curved by the wind and drawn to the light speaks to me tonight. 

So often I feel as if I'm fighting against life and where I'm being taken and led; why do I resist?  Why don't I see that there is a purpose and a beauty being created?

As September moves into October I will try to go more with the flow and allow myself to be led and drawn where it feels right.

Anyone with me?
