Be like Water.

Empty your mind.. Be formless.. Shapeless. Like Water. If you put water in a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can flow or it can crash. Be Water. These words were said by the Martial arts legend, Bruce Lee.

Many legends who lived on this earth, be in any field, they not just shared what they are the master of, but also shared lots of values for life.

Be like Water, formless, shapeless.. In life we are nothing. There no purpose and meaning. But we are here to enrich our soul. By fighting and questioning everything, we are not living. Every hurdle is a chance to creates a new passage. Like water finding its way out. You can’t stop it, hold it. It is nature. We are nature. By trying to find meaning in meaningless space and trying to find purpose in no purpose is such a waste full state.

Nature lives. Water has no purpose. Just always been there, is there now, and possibly going to be there forever, unless nature might decide otherwise. The world has been here for millions of years and is going to be there for many more millions. No one will remember after a million year what you did, how you lived. Not even after a hundred years. So creating such a scene and making meaning out of everything and trying fight everyone, you forget live.

Let’s learn from nature. We are nature. The more we blend with the nature, and learn from it, we start living. Experience every moment with joy. If we face a hurdle we pass through. We are out there in a situation, we become the situation and overflow, submerging the situation and keep flowing.

Be like water. Have life.
