millie shows me a bouncy castle, the kind that kids jump around in at carnivals and birthday parties. the human figure in the bouncy castle is very stiff and rigid, and not having a very good time.
"life is like a bouncy castle. to really enjoy it, you must be flexible and willing to go in unexpected directions. you must be able to change direction without much notice. you must be willing to fall and trust that you will bounce right back.
being stiff and rigid in your bouncy castle will lead to fear and frustration as you are thrown around against your will. you cannot control the bounce. the bounce just happens.
let go of your need for control. loosen up and enjoy the ride."
thank you, millie.
