Are we more like rocks or more like water?
"Water is fluid, soft, and yielding. But water will wear away rock, which is rigid and cannot yield. As a rule, whatever is fluid, soft, and yielding will overcome whatever is rigid and hard. This is another paradox: what is soft is strong."
Lao Tzu
How do we show up in the world? I'd like to say I'm like water and that is an aim, but if I'm really honest, there are definitely times when I'm rigid especially when it comes to thinking about what I think that I need (e.g. in relationships)...but... What I've found, is that the more space I give (space, not distance) the more the relationship can actually breathe and come to life in such a beautiful way.
