Default my favorite quote

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.

Great quote. Reminds me a bit of the bamboo. In how to be flexible and yet strong.
KnifeHandStrike-LOL, I am sure a lot of us can relate at one time or another!!
