“There is nothing more submissive and weak than water,” writes Lao Tzu. “Yet for attacking that which is hard and strong nothing can surpass it.”

Though seemingly simple in its approach, it shares with us a foundational teaching – likening the passage of water to the flow of human spirit.

Nature thrives through a complexity of paths. Some, man made; while others are more organically forged.

In the latter, nothing is forced in haste. Patience yields what the trowel can not. Even the mightiest of rivers will bend to suit the will of a greater flow. And in its path, a flourishing of life’s inherent capacity to persevere.

Just as the water, we must allow ourselves to be. And in this being, we too shall find our way.

In peace, my loves…

Namaste ❤️
