To make friends with the wind means to live in harmony with it by understanding, respecting, and preparing ourselves and our environment to coexist with its power. Specifically:
- Build strong homes with firmly joined doors to withstand the wind's force.
- Make ourselves physically and mentally strong—build strong bodies and steadfast hearts to face challenges symbolized by the wind.
- Observe, respect, and appreciate the wind by enjoying activities it enables like flying kites.
- Protect ourselves when necessary, showing respect and cooperation with nature's force.
The underlying message is that strength and resilience in both surroundings and character help us "befriend" the wind and face life's difficulties bravely rather than being harmed by them.
This view is both practical, about protection from wind's physical impact, and metaphorical, about building inner strength to handle life's challenges like the wind's force.
