Losing the flow

You exist because your parents combined their reproductive material and created an offspring. That is the only “answer” you will ever find. There is no “why.” You can ask “why” about things that have no discernible “reason,” but i think you know just how detrimental it can be, to simply “surf the flow of the waves of thought.”

The truth behind the illusory society in which we exist, is that people hate incompetence and inferiority, perhaps even more than malice. A skilled, confident, competent, superior person, who happens to be “evil,” is often better respected than someone with a heart of pure gold, who can’t seem to make things work out right for themselves.

If you can’t control yourself, how can you expect to enact what is required for the results you want to create? You have to learn to control yourself, starting with your mind, progressing through your body, ultimately culminating in deliberate and precise action.

While there is some profound value in “being like water,” in that you can adapt to any container and effortlessly flow around every mountain… water can never stabilize until it’s frozen.

But a mountain, while immobile, can stand firm in the path of a raging river, for ages, and not even flinch.

Water may flow effortlessly, but the mountain doesn’t care where the river flows. The mountain just stands there, unaffected, while the water washes away the loose bits.

If you find that being water doesn’t work for you… remember the mountain.
