“Nothing in the world is as soft and yielding as water.
Yet for dissolving the hard and inflexible, nothing can surpass it.
The soft overcomes the hard; the gentle overcomes the rigid.
Everyone knows this is true, but few can put it into practice.”
Be like water.
Water fits into any container and fills it completely; it is content to fill any shape or roll that it is presented with.
Water carved the grand canon and pounded stone to sand; it finds that path of least resistance yet leaves its mark on all it touches.
Life springs forth from water and water sustains it.
Be like water.
