be like water making its way through cracks. do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round or through it. if nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves. empty your mind, be formless. shapeless, like water. if you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. you put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. you put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. now, water can flow or it can crash. be water my friend.
