“Water teaches us things, with the most valuable lesson
probably being: flow! Go through life with ease and elegance, follow the path
of least resistance, bobbing and swaying in the flow. Accept everything that
life brings you. Always be prepared to move along without fear or reservations.
‘Water reaches its goal by flowing uninterruptedly,’ Richard Wilhelm wrote in
his translation of the I Ching, the Chinese book of change. ‘It fills every
depth before it flows on. It does not recoil from anything—no dangerous spot,
no fall into the abyss—and nothing makes it lose its essential nature. It
remains true to itself under all circumstances…as all noble folk should.’”
