Flow

The late, great Bruce Lee, martial arts phenom/actor/philosopher spoke of true mastery being master of oneself. The metaphor he heavily favored was “Be Like Water”. It seemed his pledge to himself was to flow like water, challenging fear, folly and avarice with self-awareness. To paraphrase Mr. Lee…”Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless, like water. Put water in a cup, it becomes the cup. Put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle. Water can flow or it can crash. Be water”.
