changes come from all directions and in various forms. i choose to meet these changes with the attitude of water. when water is confronted with a rock in it’s path, it doesn’t back-peddle, stop, and freak out about what to do. water does what it does: it flows, it adjusts its shape to the obstacle, embracing the obstacle, and continuing on its way. water takes the form of whatever contains it. water yields to the force of wind and gravity. yet it still maintains its own powerful force and beauty.
that’s how i want to adapt and adjust in the face of change and in the face of obstacles.
mind like water
Indeed – what a great way to greet adversity!
