Be like Water<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/strong>mysterious, <\/span><\/p>\n

elusive to the grasping touch,<\/span><\/p>\n

persistently gentle<\/span>
\nin eroding the unyielding,<\/span>
\nflexible in entering<\/span>
\nwhere nothing solid can block<\/span>
\nits curious searching,<\/span><\/p>\n

Be Like Water<\/span><\/p>\n

So mutably soft,<\/span>
\nsafe from harm<\/span>
\nor being destroyed<\/span>
\nin simply changing form<\/span>
\nand returning again,<\/span>
\novertime,<\/span>
\novercoming the hard,<\/span><\/p>\n

Steady drip, drip, drip<\/span>
\nof resolute kindness<\/span>
\nbecoming a large lake of serenity,<\/span>
\na reservoir<\/span>
\nwhere evil cannot enter,<\/span><\/p>\n

Be like water,<\/span>
\nflowing everywhere,<\/span>
\ngushing, sometimes shooting,<\/span>
\naerated, slippery, and pure,<\/span>
\nwherever,<\/span>
\ncontaining a message of spiritual reverence<\/span>
\nnourishing thirsty souls<\/span>
\nwith regenerating sustenance,<\/span>
\neven in the midst<\/span>
\nof world-wide sorrow,<\/span><\/p>\n

Be like water,<\/span>
\nwith strength<\/span>
\nso like the Tao,<\/span>
\nyou get it<\/span>
\nby relaxing into the river,<\/span>
\nand letting go.<\/span><\/p>\n

What’s my point? \u00a0We are made from so much fluid – taking time to hold a pose allows solids\/fluids to “settle” into your abode. \u00a0From a prezel contraction to straighten, lengthen and … there’s extension – allowing the rivers to flow … then erect a dam – \u00a0block the flow… then… unblock – the surge happens – continually. \u00a0Repeat – Soak in – Things happen. Integrate and find our true nature of wholeness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
