great works ii – 2850 jta 12:25-2:05: love letters from the world

Twenty-Two to me meant being able to adapt, being versatile and that would result to great things. “To bend and be straight;” “Yield and overcome;” “Wear Out and be new”. I feel that you have to know or embrace certain things in order to achieve the outcome you desire. If you know when to yield and play the field by taking it easy and observing you’ll eventually notice the weak point and know when to overcome. I feel like the second stanza explains what you gain out of the first, what it creates if you can succeed. From my perspective being humble and respect/self-respect seems to be a theme in the second stanza. “Not putting on a display, They shine forth.” “Not Boasting,They receive recognition.” I feel that displays how humble and respect creates greatness without the need to step on anyones toes or putting anyone else down. All good things gravitate towards you and it influences everyone else around you. If you carry yourself with these qualities, greatness will come.
