You can also, for example, say that light has mass (as it is capable of
effecting a force on something with mass) and that gravity is real and that
everything with mass reacts
to gravity and so light passing some mass will bend.
You can also, for example, say that the house elves in the sun love the
passing light so much that they sing songs that only photons can hear and
the photons love the songs so much that it bends a bit in its direction.
You can also say....
Well, anything actually.
