“You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can drip and it can crash. Become like water my friend.” Bruce Lee
If I ever feel stuck in life, my sister always reminds me, “Be like water, and move with it.”
As all life is a continuous movement, when I’m resisting what is, I do not flow and this creates heaviness in me.
Therefore in order to release this, I must first accept myself and my situation and gently begin to open as I move and flow into the infinite space of creativity.
Nothing is weaker than water,
But when it attacks something hard
Or resistant, then nothing withstands it,
And nothing will alter its way.
Tao Te Ching
LIVING IN THIS MOMENT

Wise words! ❤
Flowing gratitude to you Eliza 💦

Yes! Thank you Kamal 💚
Welcome Karen.
Wonderful post, Karen. Water is soft and powerful, and I appreciate the Bruce Lee quote as a reminder. Today, I shall be like water…soft and strong. Thank you. I really needed this. 💕
Beautiful Carrie. Flow gently 💦
Moving right along with you Karen 🌊
Lovely to have you flowing along Val 💦🌈
Up the creek without a paddle, Haha. ❤
Yes be there too ha! 😀 The water takes us as passengers on an unknown journey revealing our soul purpose. Onward and upward Mary 💦🌈
Beautiful. How sweet of your sister to remind you to move with things. This is such a good mantra!
I agree! We remind each other all the time, and I’m pretty sure that’s what we are all meant to do on this crazy journey. Thanks Heather 🌈💕
Love this analogy. And the fact that water trumps rock, over time. Just keep on truckin’, right? 🙂
Yes that’s the plan Kristine!! Hopefully with patience and practice we can move through any obstacles coming our way 💦🍃🌈
Water finds the point of least resistance and flows. You will never see water running up hill which is what we do sometimes being stuck in the past. Trust n the process or the “flow” It’s been a long time since I’ve read that Bruce Lee quote. Thank you for reminding me of it.
Thanks Larry. It’s a good reminder for us all 💦🌈
One of my favorite concepts of the Dao de Jing, Karen, love this post. Most people I know are infatuated with water at some level. Whether it is the sounds as it flows, its natural flexibility or the strength and power we can see in nature – water both relaxes and invigorates me. Wishing you a great weekend ahead.
Water creates a universal connection! I agree Randall. Thank you and have a wonderful Easter with family and friends . 🐇🍃🐇
