“Nothing in the world is more flexible and yielding than water. Yet when it attacks the firm and the strong, none can withstand it, because they have no way to change it. So the flexible overcome the adamant, the yielding overcome the forceful. Everyone knows this, but no one can do it.” ~ Lao Tzu

Water

 

Water knows no fear, anticipation, or surprise.

Remaining calm, clear, and true,

It suffers not the future
And reflects beauty in tranquillity.

Water neither seeks nor resists conflict.

Flowing with simplicity and efficiency,

It suffers not the present
And reflects beauty in turbulence.

Water dwells not on drama or regret.

Resuming the original condition,

It suffers not the past
And reflects beauty in equilibrium.... Become Water!

 

“Water is the driving force in nature.”
― Leonardo da Vinci

 

 

“Water does not resist. Water flows. When you plunge your hand into it, all you feel is a caress. Water is not a solid wall, it will not stop you. But water always goes where it wants to go, and nothing in the end can stand against it. Water is patient. Dripping water wears away a stone. Remember that, my child. Remember you are half water. If you can't go through an obstacle, go around it. Water does.”
― Margaret Atwood

 

“Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless - like water. Now you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup, you put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle, you put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.” ~Bruce Lee

 

P.S:How much like water are we as we go through each moment of our lives??????

What would it take for us to be more and more like water……calm,clear,true,gentle,patient and flexible yet fearless,strong and indomitable in the face of challenges ?????
